WILD RICE WITH MUSHROOMS
In Wisconsin, wild rice is truly wild, not cultivated as in other states, the tassels rising and swaying over rivers, lakes and floodplains come late August and September. Called manoomin by the local Chippewa, it is a protected crop that can be harvested only by state residents holding a valid license. And only by hand, as the Chippewa have always done, using wooden flails gently (the grains should fall from the stalk without great effort) from canoes propelled by paddles or push poles. Shellie Holmes of Rhinelander, Wis., who shares her recipe here, likes to cook wild rice just until it pops open. This is a break with her family's tradition, which favored a chewier texture and did not allow popping. "Do not mix with other rice," she urged, lest you lose the flavor of the wild.

Steps:
- Bring 5 cups water to a boil. Stir in rice, then reduce heat so liquid is just simmering. Cover and cook until grains just begin to pop, about 40 minutes. Drain excess liquid from rice and set aside.
- Meanwhile, melt 4 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until they have released their liquid and are golden brown, about 8 minutes; remove to a plate. Repeat with remaining butter and mushrooms.
- Return all the mushrooms to the skillet and season with the salt and pepper, to taste. Very carefully add sherry to deglaze the pan, and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated but mushrooms are still moist.
- Mix mushrooms into prepared rice and season again with salt and pepper.

WILD RICE WITH WILD MUSHROOMS
One surprise to Europeans who settled the plains was the abundance of wild mushrooms, including morels, chanterelles, and other varieties familiar from home. Free for the picking, the mushrooms were hung on strings and dried, providing a winter's worth of eating. Wild rice (actually a grass seed) is a New World native that combines well with the earthy mushrooms the French cèpes.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
- Toast the Rice: Toasting the wild rice before cooking helps bring out its nutty flavor and aroma. Make sure to stir the rice constantly while toasting to prevent burning.
- Use a Dutch Oven or Heavy-Bottomed Pot: A Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot will help distribute heat evenly and prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Cook the Rice in Broth: Cooking the wild rice in broth instead of water adds extra flavor and depth. You can use vegetable broth, chicken broth, or beef broth, depending on your preference.
- Simmer the Rice Until Tender: Wild rice takes longer to cook than white or brown rice, so be patient and let it simmer until it is tender. This usually takes about 45 minutes to an hour.
- Add the Mushrooms and Bacon: Once the rice is cooked, add the mushrooms and bacon and cook until the mushrooms are tender and the bacon is crispy.
- Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Before serving, garnish the wild rice with fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, or thyme. This will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.
Conclusion:
Wild rice with mushrooms and bacon is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a fall or winter meal. The nutty flavor of the wild rice, the earthy flavor of the mushrooms, and the smoky flavor of the bacon come together to create a truly memorable dish. This recipe is also very versatile, so you can easily customize it to your own taste. For example, you can add different vegetables, such as carrots, celery, or peas. You can also use different types of mushrooms, such as cremini mushrooms or shiitake mushrooms. And if you are vegetarian or vegan, you can omit the bacon or use a plant-based bacon substitute. No matter how you choose to make it, wild rice with mushrooms and bacon is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
