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.
