Centuries ago, the Ojibwe sought the “food that grows on water,” and when they found it they knew they had reached their new home. Today, wild rice is Minnesota’s state grain. Although often prepared as a simple and tasty soup or pilaf, it is well suited to a host of other applications. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e In \u003cb\u003eWild Rice Revolution\u003c\/b\u003e, Richard LaFortune brings ingenuity and international flair to hand-harvested manoomin, sharing innovative recipes as well as regional stories from Ojibwe people.
