      Title: COOKED WILD RICE
 Categories: Vegetables
      Yield: 2 servings
 
    1/3 c  Wild Rice
      1 c  Water
      1    Bacon Strip; Thick, Lean
      1 ts Butter; Unsalted
           Salt
           White Pepper; Freshly Ground
 
  Put the wild rice and water in a small sauce pan.
   Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to a
  bare simmer, cover and cook until the rice is tender,
  1 to 1 1/4 hours.  While the rice is cooking, saute
  the bacon until golden brown and crisp, then drain on
  a paper towel.  Cut the bacon crosswise into thin
  julienne strips and set aside.  When the rice is done,
  gently stir in the butter with a fork until melted;
  season to taste with salt and pepper.  Just before
  serving, toss the rice with the bacon strips.
  Makes 1 cup
