MINNESOTA REAL WILD RICE STUFFING
The nutty flavor of wild rice makes a great combo with dried apricots, pine nuts, and traditional ingredients. I combined some recipes and the result was eagerly consumed. When I made this I fully cooked the rice. This is a forgiving and flexible recipe. There are so many different things to add or substitute: walnuts, almonds, orange zest, dried cranberries, mushrooms, more bread, whatever you prefer.

WILD RICE STUFFING
I grew up in Minnesota and we ate a lot of wild rice. This stuffing recipe was my Aunt Lorraine's and I continue to use it every time I stuff a turkey. The success depends on the correct amount of spices. I just keep adding until you can smell them in the next room and then it is ready. Besides the spices listed, use salt and pepper to taste. Make the night before but do not stuff the turkey until just before ready to roast.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use a high-quality wild rice. Look for rice that is plump and has a deep, nutty color.
- Rinse the wild rice thoroughly before cooking. This will help to remove any dirt or debris.
- Cook the wild rice according to the package directions. Be sure to use a large pot, as the rice will expand as it cooks.
- Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and let it cool slightly.
- While the rice is cooling, prepare the other ingredients for the stuffing. Chop the vegetables and nuts, and cook the sausage (if using).
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice, vegetables, nuts, and sausage (if using). Add the seasonings and mix well.
- Stuff the dressing into a cooked turkey or chicken, or bake it in a casserole dish. If baking in a casserole dish, cover the dish with foil and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the stuffing is heated through.
Conclusion:
Minnesota Real Wild Rice Stuffing is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is also a great way to use up leftover rice. Whether you are making it for a holiday dinner or a weeknight meal, this stuffing is sure to be a hit.
