Wild Rice Instructions:

• Bring water or stock to a boil with the birch bark until you have a birch tea.

• Remove the birch bark then add the animal fat, salt, syrup & wild rice and bring back to a gentle boil.

• Boil the rice until moisture is absorbed and rice grains have split open. Add more liquid if needed. Wild rice can take up to an hour to cook.

• When rice is done, drain off any excess moisture and fluff up with more lard.

• Crumble up the smoked fish and place in a small bowl or plate.

Assembly:

• Serve the rice by heaping a pile on individual plates and topping with a handful of the dried fish.

This is a great way to stretch out a small amount of dried fish and can be your saving grace when you screw up a main course of fish!
