I made a pilaf with this for my first time trying it. Saute a little onion, carrot and bell pepper in ghee for a couple minutes. Added this rice, sauted a minute longer, added chicken stock and set it for 12 minutes with my Nesco electric pressure cooker. It cooked well, no mushy grains. It is quite a bit darker than a regular brown rice, almost a mahogany. I sprinkled some roasted almonds and roasted sunflower seeds on top and it made a delicious meal. On the picky eaters I added cheese on top to cover the dark brown so no noses turned up on their first try of it. They ate it all. :)
I was expecting a wild rice flavor, I didn't detect that - just a nutty, good tasting, hearty brown rice. If I didn't make pilaf it may have tasted more 'wild' if steamed on it's own. I'd purchase again but may try another flavor first - I'd like a bit more wild rice flavor in my rice.
From all I have ever been able to learn, Lundberg is a first class operation. I have tried (I think) every rice and rice blend that they offer, over the years that I have been buying their products. While I didn't always care for a particular variety, it was never an issue of quality, just a matter of personal preference.
There is one problem, which is not Lundberg's fault, but is worth noting. Too often, in local grocery stores, the Lundberg product does not turn over fast enough to avoid a decline in quality. I assume it is caused by a fermentation of the whole grain (not a problem with lesser rices because much of the "good stuff" is removed). The symptoms are a bag which is swollen, and rice which tastes a bit like Play-Doh smells. Play-Doh 24 Pack of Colors In order to avoid this problem, I started ordering my Lundberg on-line, and storing the extra bags in my freezer or refrigerator until used. So, buying it here (which is a little cheaper than Lundberg's on-line store) is a good way to go. If you want to buy just one bag to try at your local grocery store, check the bag carefully, and if it tastes like Play-Doh when you get home with it, that bag was too old.
Of all the Lundberg products, Countrywild is my absolute favorite. It is a nice blend of flavors, and I sometimes eat a bowl of it for my entire meal. It has a good flavor to it, but it is not as intense as some of the other varieties.
(I use the Sanyo and like it pretty well. A search on "pressure rice cooker" here, or a visit to any large Asian store, will reveal other makes and models, but there are no inexpensive pressure type rice cookers because of the substantial construction and safety requirements.)
Worth way more than 5 stars! NEVER hesitate to try a Lndberg product! They're ABSOLUTELY the best quality out there. This blend is one of our faves becuase it tastes so good. Try it as a side, in a sandwich, or on a salad.. I once took it to a picnic (cold) as a side, and it disappeared QUICK. (great with cold chicken.) BTW, none of the Lundberg blends require (or need) salt to cook, so be cautious about adding any kind of seaeoning when you cook Lindberg grains.
I've made Lundberg rice in the past, but this Country Wild Rice is fast becoming a favorite. The texture is just right (not chewy or dry) and the taste has a bit of nuttiness and woodsy flavor. It's really good and goes well with chicken and roasted vegetables. I definitely recommend it.
What can I say, I truly love, love, love this rice....and to think, I use to hate brown rice...this blend doesn't take very long to cook at all. It is very satisfying, I cant get enough of it...Told all my co-workers and even brought some for them to try and they love it as well. I am soooooo happy that I found this rice. Mixed with broccoli and mushrooms and a little green onions, and you think its from the chinese restaurant. Oh yeah. You will not be disappointed, wellll unless you are one of those people who just like to complain
I love this rice and couldn’t find it anywhere. Was so happy to see that Amazon had it at a reasonable price. I hope they don’t discontinue this version
