Can you cook wild rice in a rice cooker? 

Yes, you can definitely cook wild rice in a rice cooker!

Hey there! Are you ready to cook up some of the best wild rice you've ever had? Let's do it, baby!

Here's how to cook wild rice in a rice cooker:

1. Rinse your wild rice thoroughly under cold water. This will help to remove any dirt or debris that may be clinging to the grains.

2. Add the wild rice to your rice cooker, along with the appropriate amount of water or chicken/vegetable broth for flavor. The general rule of thumb is to use two cups of water for every one cup of wild rice, but you may want to adjust this ratio depending on your personal preference for the level of chewiness.

3. Turn on your rice cooker and let it do its thing. Depending on the model you have, it may take anywhere from 20 to 60 minutes for the wild rice to cook.   Most rice cookers have a "white rice" or "brown rice" setting that can be used to cook wild rice, but you may need to adjust the water ratio or cooking time depending on your specific rice cooker model and your personal preference for the level of chewiness.

4. While you're waiting for the wild rice to cook, you can get busy preparing the rest of your meal. Just remember to keep an eye on the rice cooker, as you don't want to overcook the wild rice or let it dry out.

5. When the rice cooker indicates that the wild rice is done, carefully fluff it with a fork and serve it up! Don't forget to add a little bit of butter, salt, and pepper to taste, if you're feeling fancy.

And that's it! Now you're ready to serve up a big bowl of wild rice that's sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. Get ready to dig in, because this stuff is tasty!
