Posted by Jeanne Topham (jtopham@bbn.com) ... Last weekend I had a terrific rice dish that I'd never had before. The dinner was catered (the caterer dropped off everything, ready to be heated), so I wasn't able to get the recipe. It looks simple enough to make, but I was hoping to cut down on the number of experiments at home by asking if anyone has such a recipe or can point me in the direction of a cookbook which might have something similar. It had long grain wild rice, little pieces of onion and green pepper, bulgur, pine nuts, and seemed to have butter or oil - just enough to hold stuff together (not in clumps) and give a slightly shiny appearance to the pine nuts and all. Is this familiar to anyone? Please post the recipe if possible; otherwise when my experiments are successful, I'll let you know what I came up with. I'm hoping that perhaps this dish is from Minnesota - I've had "Minnesota Long Grain Wild Rice" brand and that's exactly the way the rice in this dish looked. Thanks for the help!
