Native hand picked wild rice is a north country tradition. By Beth Anderson
Even back in the early 1600s when wild rice was first discovered by French explorers, it was considered a delicacy. The Chippewa and Sioux Indians collected and stored wild rice which made up about 25% of their diet.
Much of the wild rice on the market today iscommercially grown paddle rice. We carry only real wild rice picked from local lakes and streams.
We hope you enjoy this north country delicacy. Here are a few of Larry and Sue's favorite recipes!
