Bottom right Mushroom wild rice, top right is wasbi mayo. I think the fish are smelts. The imitation crab and shrimp im not sure about.But the rest of the plate I can say is indigenous cuisine and native to my area. Very delicious for the most part epsiecally the wild rice.
Doesn’t mushroom wild rice have rice in it? Zoom in on that image.
I think i see it. If you over cook it. It likes melts abit.
It often does because even commercial wild rice is expensive and cutting it with regular white rice makes for a much cheaper dish. And the bland white rice offers no extra flavor to the dish.
But there are those of us who have access to real wild rice that has been hand harvested and hand parched over an open wood fire. That's God tier wild rice. And I would never disrespect that wild rice in such a fashion.
That sounds delicious. But I don’t see any rice in the the picture above, wild or otherwise.
Wut? That's shellfish in the bottom right
I see grains of rice, mushroom and carrot?
I'd go right to my happy place with the mushroom wild rice alone.
