Wild Rice - Grade A+ (8 ounce)

Description

This glossy, rich wild rice is prized for its long grains and ultra-upscale appearance. Considered to be the finest grains available, Grade A+ Wild Rice offers a nutty flavor with umami overtones. Grown in the mountains of northeastern California, wild rice is actually an aquatic plant, not a rice, that helps ponds and marshes thrive. It grows to a tall, graceful five or six feet, creating a haven for waterfowl. The seeds, found in the head of the stalk, attract fish and waterfowl. If you’re looking for a chance to include a sustainable menu item with a rich history, wild rice provides a perfect opportunity.
