Wild Rice Dark 200 g Epigrain
Wild Rice is not truly a rice; it is a seed from an aquatic grass native to North America. Once harvested, the green seeds are cured and roasted to bring out their rich, nutty flavour. The grains have a slightly green bitterness and, when cooked, burst open to reveal a soft, white, and tender interior. Perfect for pilafs, stuffing, and salads, or paired with corn, chilies, and roasted peppers. It also adds an interesting texture to Blini batter, perfect for serving with smoked salmon or caviar and crème fraîche.
