Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Rinse the rice in several changes of cold water. Drain well.

  2. Step 2

    Melt the butter in a small saucepan and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until wilted. Add the rice and stir. Add salt and pepper.

  3. Step 3

    Add the broth and bring to a boil. Cover closely and let simmer 45 minutes or until rice ''blooms'' and is tender. If any liquid remains, uncover and cook until liquid evaporates, stirring occasionally.

Tip
  • Leftover rice can be put to another use.

Straightforward and delicious.

I see recipes for wild rice with rice:liquid ratios from 1:1 1/4 up to 1:4. This makes no sense to me, given that steaming rice, whether white, brown, sticky, red or black all have recipes with a specific ratio, one that doesn't vary much from recipe to recipe.

Straightforward and delicious.
