Canada's central northern lakes and marshes provide us with the finest fragrant long-grain wild rice.

Ingredients

• 

2 cups (500 mL) wild rice

• 

4 cups (1 L) chopped mushrooms (about 10 oz/300 g)

• 

1 small onion, chopped

• 

1 stalk celery, diced

• 

1/4 cup (60 mL) olive or vegetable oil

• 

3 tbsp (45 mL) sherry vinegar or wine vinegar

• 

1 tsp (5 mL) salt

• 

1/4 tsp (1 mL) black pepper

• 

1/4 cup (60 mL) chopped fresh parsley

• 

1/4 cup (60 mL) chopped fresh chives

Preparation

In saucepan, bring 8 cups/2 L water to boil; add rice and boil gently until tender and some but not all of the grains have burst open, about 30 minutes. Drain; transfer to bowl.

In saucepan, stir together mushrooms, onion, celery, oil, vinegar, salt and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes. Scrape over rice and mix well; let cool. Stir in parsley and chives.
