- Basic Preparation: Wild rice is easy to prepare. The texture can be varied to your liking, the longer it cooks, the softer and fluffier the grain becomes. Add 1 cup wild rice to 4 cups boiling water. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 55-65 minutes or until desired texture. Drain excess liquid and season to taste. Enhance the flavor of wild rice by cooking in chicken broth, bouillon, or soup mix.
