Minnesota Grown Wild Rice
Thousand Lakes Food Company

This product is as different from ‘processed, instant rice’ as day is from night! This is REAL rice….and you will love becoming acquainted (or reacquainted) with it.

As the above image hints at, this rice is dark. We’re not talking brown rice, we’re talking DARK brown rice that is almost black. When it is cooked you will see a few grains that have opened up, revealing a paler interior. The texture is chewy: satisfyingly chewy. The flavor is nutty, warm, rich and earthy. The rice is not sticky and does not clump together: each grain is distinct and whole. You will not find mush at the bottom of your pan and it does not stick to the pan when you cook it.

This rice is divine with just salt on it. Add real butter or a flavorful olive oil and this becomes a simple and elegant feast. Include this in soup, a casserole or a stew and your recipe takes on a depth and richness that regular rice cannot impart. This is REAL rice!

Even if you only try this rice once, it is an experience that you should have at least once in your life. Banish any preconceived ideas that you have about this rice for we know that you are only able to make a comparison to what you have already experienced: typical, bland rice. Be prepared to be wowed, to be stunned and to emote and rave about this rice. Be prepared to have others comment on it, and ask where you got it. The best that you can do is to tell them that they are finally eating REAL rice!

In a tough 16-ounce package with an image of a Loon on it, you will find super easy preparation instructions. This package could be taken on a camping trip and feed everyone around the campfire. This is a bag that you want in your cupboard for when you want something really satisfying…as well as healthy. This is the rice that will make homemade stock into soup heaven and will grace a dinner table or a holiday get-together. This is REAL rice! Treat yourself to the best. This is PURE Zing!
