The Best Wild Rice Salad with Grape is a sweet and citrus, fruit and nut, delightfully fresh, first course to serve. With a selection of salad ingredients using green grapes, oranges, scallions, cranberries and pecan nuts combined with perfectly cooked wild rice (steps in recipe) and coated in an orange zest and olive oil dressing, this delicious salad sings to everyone!
To make The Best Wild Rice Salad with Grape, you will need the following ingredients:
In a saucepan, bring soaked wild rice, water or stock and ½ teaspoon salt to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 20 minutes until most of the water is absorbed. For unsoaked rice, simmer for 40 minutes until cooked and additional water, as necessary.
Transfer the cooked rice to a plate and cool before preparing salad.
In a large salad bowl or on a serving plate, mix the cooled wild rice, grapes, orange slices, scallions, cranberries and pecans together, until combined.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk the orange juice, orange zest, olive oil, salt and pepper together to combine well.
Pour dressing over salad and toss to coat. Place salad in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to absorb all the flavors.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
