Reg, when you cook it, do you do it as you would white rice; i.e., all
the water is absorbed? Or do you boil it in a large quantity of water
and drain it before use? I'm from the Boil The Hell Out of It School of
Wild Rice Prep. Then I drain it. I use seasoned water (bouillon or soy
sauce). The Good Stuff cooks faster than the black stuff most readily
seen in supermarkets.
