I was looking for a book to cook dry beans and thought this would be it. The picture suggests that. It is full of recipes using canned beans.

Editorial Review:

As a food rice is one of the most nutritious; as a symbol and source of mythology, it is fascinating. In the northern and eastern United States and southern Canada, wild rice is still harvested by Native Americans and folks who have lived for generations near the lakes and rivers where it grows naturally. The satisfying process of harvesting, called "ricing," still follows ancient tradition, using canoes, poles, and handmade knockers. WILD RICE COOKING is the complete book of wild rice, giving its history and lore, offering a primer on how to share the joys of reaping wild harvest yourself, along with a guide to buying wild rice, and instructions on cooking it, with eighty fabulous recipes.

Buyers, be aware! Spanish version! 4 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

This is not a review so much as it is a heads-up - this is the SPANISH version of this cookbook. The English version can be ordered here: The Williams-Sonoma Collection: Risotto I almost ordered this one by mistake because the language difference is not listed in the main description. Great cookbook, I just can't read Spanish!

Editorial Review:

Creamy, tender risotto is such a far cry from steamed rice that it's hard to believe they're made from the same basic ingredient. The rice used for risotto is a particular, starch-rich variety; when slowly and carefully cooked, the rice releases its starch to create an irresistibly creamy consistency while the grains of rice remain whole. This beautifully illustrated cookbook features an expansive array of risotto possibilities that may surprise even seasoned chefs. Dishes include a dramatic deep crimson Risotto with Beets; a luscious Risotto with Pesto and Shrimp; and a rich wintertime Risotto with Lamb, Rosemary, and Olives. The authors stress the importance of always using the best ingredients available: high-quality rice, fresh seasonal vegetables, good wine, and sweet butter. In addition to the dozens of tested recipes, Risotto contains a section of basics that describe ingredients, cooking strategies, and much more.

it works... 3 out of 5 stars.

The rice cooker book.
It's all about the "suihanki", as they call it in Japan. It is the focal point of any Japanese kitchen, and at any given moment, is full to the brim with boring white rice. They eat it for every meal, breakfast through to dinner and even as a late night 'snack'.
And using a rice cooker is easy. All you do is add rice and water and push a button.
Now, finally someone actually went into the kitchen and came up with some rather interesting, if not tasty recipes using the convenience of the rice cooker (it saves on cleanup tremendously) to create delicious meals.
Enough with the boring white rice, I say.
What's more, this cookbook provides recipes that have nothing to do with rice. It is the "other" steamer/oven-like-appliance that you never knew you had. Did you know you could use it to cook desserts, or even appetizers? It has vegetarian and meat-atarian meal ideas alike.
I found this book helpful because I have a small kitchen and I hate doing the dishes. In this book I found a few recipes I could make, that would make me appear to be a gourmet, a spectacular chef, without making a mess or putting much effort into the cooking process.

Editorial Review:

Not only rice recipes, but one-dish meals, entrees, vegetables and even tempting desserts are in this 100-recipe collection. Prepare healthy foods for every course with the rice cooker.

My wife of 44 years is an excellent cook. However, she did not have a good rice/risotto cook book. I gave her this book as a Christmas present. We have enjoyed many great and unique rice/risotto dishes. The book is also a treat for the eyes.

Great cookbook! 5 out of 5 stars.

I received this book as a gift and am quite pleased. An excellent choice for those who enjoy, but might be bored with plain risotto. Creative, easy to follow recipes with great results. Well organized book. Includes easy cooking tips, broth recipes and risotto by chapter (vegetable, seafood, low-fat, etc.), no photos. Again, an excellent choice.

the best! 5 out of 5 stars.

Wild Rice is a food that is held in high esteem, especially in Minnesota where I live. It is also one of the most delectable foods in existence. If you have never tasted it, you surely have missed a special treat. It is grown and harvested in several states with Minnesota and California as the primary producers. In the past it was harvested by Native American living in the northern and central states.

In her book Wild Rice For All Seasons Cookbook, Beth Anderson shares the history and lore of wild rice and some of the most delicious recipes for spring, summer, fall and winter, using this food.

Wild Rice Almondine is a personal favorite of mine. It is fast and easy to prepare and the author includes interesting variations the reader may enjoy. The Herbed Wild Rice is wonderful with grilled chicken and a side salad. But the Webster's West Cream of Wild Rice Soup is absolutely mouth-watering! There are so many fabulous recipes in this book, that even someone like me, who avoids cooking, will be drawn to this cookbook. The result of preparing these dishes is worth the time and energy.

Armchair Interviews says: You will be able to enjoy these tasty recipes all year long and that's a good thing.
