Instead of Wild rice
Nothing gives the same chewy, smoky nuttiness as wild rice; long-grain rice or quinoa is the closest.
Long-grain riceUse the same weight, but cook for 10–12 minutes rather than 45–60. It is far less chewy and not nutty, so add a little extra seasoning.
Basmati riceUse the same weight and cook for 8–10 minutes. It gives a fragrant rice base but none of wild rice's chew or smoky nuttiness.
QuinoaUse the same weight, rinse well and cook for about 15 minutes. It gives a nutty chew and works in salads, though it is not rice.
