It’s pretty much guaranteed that if you’re looking for a wild rice recipe, it’s going to have wild mushrooms too. Although, unless you’re hunting them yourself, “wild” mushrooms are pretty hard to come by. After scouring local stores for mushrooms, the most exotic I could find were shiitake and oyster. \u00af\\_(\u30c4)_\/\u00af<\/p>\n

Sticking with the wild theme, I wanted to include as many ingredients as possible that could be called wild. So, I threw in some dandelion greens (trust me, dandelion is the new kale and they’re becoming easier and easier to find in grocery stores), garlic, green onions, with parsley and pine nuts as a garnish.<\/p>\n

By the way, did you know that pine nuts are actually the seeds of pine cones? The seeds are difficult to extract from the cones, so specially-trained squirrels are often hired to do most of the manual labor. Once you factor in the number of nuts the squirrels eat on the job, and their aggressive labor unions, now you know why they cost $20\/pound in the bulk bins!<\/p>\n

…Anyways! This recipe is classic “One Ingredient” \u2013 an easy meal with simple ingredients that highlight the natural flavors of real food. The slight sweetness of the rice, the bitter dandelion greens, the meaty mushrooms \u2013 it’s so delicious and satisfying on every level. It really reminds me of what One Ingredient<\/a> is all about, and I think you guys will, um, go wild for it.<\/p>\n
