Ring Of Wild Rice With A Mushroom Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Cook 1 1/4 cups wild rice blend as the label directs (discard the flavor packet, if included). Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 sliced small shallot, 1 sliced jalapeno, 12 ounces sliced mixed mushrooms and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt; cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Fluff the rice and add to the skillet; season with salt. Stir in 3 tablespoons chopped cilantro.

Steps:

• Rice -- Cook the rice according to package directions.
• Base -- Melt the butter over medium heat and add in the flour and stir until well combined. Slowly mix the hot water with the bouillon until well combined and then add to the butter and flour mixture. Add in the rice and turn off the heat and stir well and let it cook for about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
• Ring -- I like to use a 6-7" ring or mold. Spray well with a non-stick spray. Press the rice mixture into the mold and press it down good - You would the mixture well packed. I like to make this the day before and then I just have to bake it. Make sure to cover well with saran or plastic wrap and keep in the refrigerator if you are not immediately cooking it.
• Bake -- Oven to 350, middle shelf. And here's the trick - fill a 13x9 pan with hot water and put on the bottom shelf, then the rice mold on the middle shelf. This will cause steam and therefore the rice doesn't burn. About 40-50 minutes un-covered. Remove from the oven and cover with foil to let it rest as you make the mushroom sauce.
• Sauce -- In a small sauce pan, add the butter and melt on medium heat. Add the mushrooms and saute for 3-4 for minutes until they are tender. Then whisk in the flour and cook just a minute to get rid of the flour taste. Add the chicken bouillon and milk and bring to medium heat until the sauce thickens. Season with the rosemary, salt and pepper.
• Serve -- Put the serving tray on top of the rice ring and then flip over. The rice mold should pop right out. I like to drizzle a little of the mushroom sauce over the rice, maybe a few rosemary sprigs in the middle and then a small dish of the mushroom sauce on the side for people to help themselves. The rice mold will cut nicely into wedges. You can serve a little of the sauce over each wedge.
• ENJOY a unique side dish!
• Cooking and prep time is a mix of cooking the rice and then baking.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the wild rice and toast, stirring, until it begins to smell nutty, about 1 minute. Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer over low heat. Cover and cook until the water is absorbed, about 40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil and remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the button mushrooms, shiitakes and thyme and cook, stirring often, until the mushrooms begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic (add more oil to the skillet if it's dry), season with salt and pepper and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 more minute.
• When the rice is cooked, fluff with a fork and gently fold in the mushroom mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Add to a serving bowl; sprinkle with the parsley.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large saucepot over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the rice and toast while stirring until it begins to smell nutty, about 1 minute. Add the chicken stock and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover and cook on low until the water is absorbed, about 40 minutes.
• While the rice is cooking, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon butter along with the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the button mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms and thyme and cook, stirring often until they begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic, season with salt and pepper and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute more.
• When the rice is cooked, fluff with a fork and gently fold in the mushrooms. Add to a serving bowl and sprinkle with the parsley before serving.

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.

Steps:

• Taste broth; if bland, season to taste with salt. In a medium pot, bring broth to a boil over high heat. Stir in rice, lower heat, cover and simmer until just tender, about 40 minutes or according to package directions. Fluff rice with a fork, cover and let stand for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, sauté vegetables: In a large, heavy skillet, heat 3 tablespoons oil over high heat. Add half the mushrooms and cook, stirring, until brown and crispy, about 8 minutes. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning. Transfer cooked mushrooms to a plate and sprinkle lightly with salt. Repeat with remaining mushrooms and another tablespoon oil, adding more oil to the skillet if it looks dry.
• In the empty skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat. Stir in leeks, fennel and 1 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring, until soft but not browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in spinach, chopped garlic, tomato paste and red pepper flakes, and cook until garlic starts turning golden, another 2 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees, and oil a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish.
• In a blender, purée 2 cans beans with their liquid, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 grated garlic clove, and salt to taste. (If your beans are unsalted, they might need more than you'd think.)
• Stir bean purée, remaining whole beans (drained), mushrooms, cilantro, parsley and cooked wild rice into skillet with vegetables. Taste and add more salt or lemon as needed; it should be well seasoned. Scrape into prepared baking dish.
• In a small bowl, combine bread crumbs, rosemary, lemon zest, remaining 2 grated garlic cloves and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Stir in 1/4 cup olive oil and Parmesan, if using.
• Sprinkle evenly on top of casserole and bake until golden, 20 to 30 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving, topped with flaky sea salt.

Steps:

• Combine the rice and broth in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover the pan, and simmer for 45 minutes. Turn the heat off and let the rice steam for another 10 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
• While the rice cools, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once it shimmers, add the onions and garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onion is translucent, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until the mushrooms are browned and soft and the liquid they release has evaporated, 7 to 10 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt.
• Gently mix the mushrooms and chopped rosemary into the cooled rice. Add salt to taste. Just before serving, garnish the rice with a drizzle of good olive oil and a sprig of fresh rosemary.

Steps:

• Bring broth to boil in small saucepan. Remove from heat; add porcini mushrooms and let stand until soft, about 30 minutes. Drain, reserving soaking liquid. Finely chop porcini.
• Bring medium saucepan of water to boil. Add rice, salt and bay leaves. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until rice is almost tender, about 45 minutes. Drain; discard bay leaves. (Porcini and rice can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover porcini, soaking liquid and rice separately and refrigerate.)
• Melt butter in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onion, carrot, garlic, marjoram, thyme and porcini and sauté 5 minutes. Add crimini mushrooms; sauté until tender, about 7 minutes. Add rice and reserved porcini soaking liquid, discarding sediment in bottom. Simmer until almost all liquid absorbed but mixture is still moist, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Bring two medium pots salted water to a boil over high heat. Add wild rice to one and wheat berries to another, reduce heat to medium, and cook until tender, 30 to 35 minutes for wild rice and 20 to 25 minutes for wheat berries.
• While grains cook, put cranberries in small bowl, and cover with hot water. Soak 15 minutes, drain, and chop. Set aside.
• Heat canola oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms, and sauté, stirring frequently, until mushrooms soften and begin to release their liquid, 8 to 10 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper, and transfer to a warm serving bowl. Stir in walnuts, shallots, parsley and cranberries.
• When grains are tender, drain them, and add them to bowl. Drizzle with walnut oil, and toss gently. Taste and add salt and pepper if necessary. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Combine the rice and 1 cup of water in a heavy-bottomed pot; bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer rice, cooking for 17 minutes, until it is tender.
• Rinse the mushrooms, and remove bottom of stems. In a food processor, process the mushrooms until they are in very small pieces.
• Heat the butter in a small nonstick pan, and saute the mushrooms over medium-low heat for a couple of minutes, until they release their juices. Remove from heat.
• Steam peas over hot water just a few minutes, until they are heated through.
• When rice is cooked, combine well with mushrooms, and season with salt and a little pepper. Place in small ring mold, and press down; then, turn out onto serving plate. Fill the center with peas. Or spoon the rice-mushroom mixture into a mound, make a depression in the center, and fill the depression with peas.
