Wild Rice Salad

Ingredients:

  • 2 Cups wild rice
  • 1 Cup green onion, finely chopped
  • 1 Cup julienne sweet peppers
  • ½ Cup red radish, thinly sliced
  • ¼ Cup tarragon, fresh, leaves only
  • 1/3 Cup Organic Zesty Italian Sliced Almond Delights
  • A few carefully separated radicchio leaves; (romaine leaves may be substituted)

Sesame Dressing:

Whisk together:

  • ¼ Cup rice vinegar
  • ¼ Cup pure sesame seed oil
  • ¼ Cup tamari; (soy sauce may be a substitute)

Instructions:

Bring to a boil 2 quarts lightly salted water and add the wild rice. Bring to a simmer and cook uncovered until about a third of the grains have burst open, about 45 minutes. Time varies. At this point it should be tender and chewy. Drain and spread out the rice on a sheet pan and cool in refrigerator. In a large salad bowl, toss the first 5 ingredients with ¾ Cup of the dressing. Line a serving platter or bowl with the radicchio leaves. Spoon the salad into the center and garnish with almonds.

Serves 8 as a side dish
