4. Step4
   *One cup of uncooked wild rice yields three to four cups of cooked wild rice. To cook, bring 4 cups of water or chicken stock to a boil, add 1 cup rice and return to boil. Stir, cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer 30 to 45 minutes until rice “opens” and is cooked through. Since wild rice is a whole grain natural product, cooking times vary and rice still maintains some texture. A certain amount of chewiness is desired. Drain off excess liquid and refrigerate until cooled. Extra wild rice freezes beautifully. Put it in an airtight freezer bag and thaw in the refrigerator when needed.
