It's actually not a rice at all, but the seeds of a type of grass native to the Great Lakes area. The grass originally grew wild and was not farmed.

Minute rice is truly even rice, and noticeably a lot tasteless. Do your self a favour and use rice that desires 20 minutes of cooking. Wild rice isn't rice, it only sounds like it so it were given the call. it truly is darkish brown/black, and it expenses a lot more suitable than accepted lengthy or short grain rice does. it truly is bought by using itself, or now and again jumbled in with accepted rice.

It is not grown as cultivated, or farmed rice. It grows wild, in certain areas.

They are basically not a farmed rice at all. They are actually a type of grass that grows, according to Wikipedia, in "shallow water in small lakes and slow-flowing streams."
