Wild rice is an excellent addition to your lunch or dinner, offering a unique flavor character. It has a black exterior and a light-colored core, with a hard and thin grain. It requires special preparation, such as soaking for several hours and boiling for a longer time than usual. If you plan to mix it with other rice, such as brown or white, it is best to cook it separately, as the black rice can color the water and change the color of the other rice to dark gray.

It is ideal for garnishes and salads, adding an interesting character to your dishes. As a superfood, it is particularly beneficial for individuals following special diets as well as for vegetarians, offering high levels of dietary fiber with a low glycemic index.
