Healthy, whole grain, nutty, this Instant Pot Wild Rice is delicious and so easy to make in the pressure cooker!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup wild rice
  • 1 ¼ cup water
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Add wild rice, water, and salt to the pressure cooker pot and stir.
  2. Secure the lid and turn pressure release knob to a sealed position.  Cook at high pressure for 30 minutes.
  3. When cooking is complete, use a full natural release.
  4. Fluff the rice with a fork.  Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For an extra boost of flavor, use chicken or vegetable broth instead of water.
  • Fluff with a fork!  Stirring with a spoon makes the rice mushy, while a fork keeps the rice separated and fluffy.
  • Let the pressure release naturally to ensure the rice is perfectly tender.  I do not recommend a quick release.
