How to Make Bay Flavored Brown Wild Rice
- If using dried shallots, rehydrate them by soaking in 2 tablespoons of water for 5 minutes.
- In a 2-quart saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the shallots and sauté until lightly browned (about 3-5 minutes).
- Add 1 cup brown rice, 1/2 cup wild rice, 2 cups of chicken stock, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 2 bay leaves to the saucepan.
- Bring the mixture to a rapid boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes without removing the lid.
- After 45 minutes, carefully remove the lid. If there is excess liquid remaining, stir gently and continue to cook over low heat for another 5-10 minutes, or until all liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.
- Fluff the rice with a fork before serving. Remove the bay leaves before serving.
