| ⅓ | cup | Wild Rice |
| 1 | cup | Water |
| 1 | each | Bacon Strip; Thick, Lean |
| 1 | teaspoon | Butter; Unsalted |

Directions
Put the wild rice and water in a small sauce pan.
Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to a bare simmer, cover and cook until the rice is tender, 1 to 1¼ hours. While the rice is cooking, saute the bacon until golden brown and crisp, then drain on a paper towel. Cut the bacon crosswise into thin julienne strips and set aside. When the rice is done, gently stir in the butter with a fork until melted; season to taste with salt and pepper. Just before serving, toss the rice with the bacon strips.
