[Vegan Wild Rice]
...Julia just says
"Wild rice has hardly been heard of in France, but you can cook it deliciously in the French manner by using a modified risotto technique."...
...we usually mix wild rice with regular rice...
...drop the rice into boiling salted water...
...and boil for five minutes...
...finely mice some carrots onions and celery...
...and cook the minced vegetables slowly in the vegan butter for 5 to 6 minutes until tender but not browned...
...add the rice and some vegan stock...
...bay leaf...
...and thyme...
...cover and set in lower third of preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until the rice is tender and has absorbed all the liquid...
...until the liquid is mostly all absorbed...
...I sauteed some beefless tips to go with the rice...
...the sort of tough black skin on the rice opens up a bit to reveal the fluffy rice-y inside...
...it's kind of a pretty dish...
...and it was really delicious...I'd definitely make it again...
