Wild Rice Stuffing

Ingredients

1. rice
2. 3 tablespoon butter or bacon fat
3. 1 tablespoon salad oil
4. 1 medium onion, chopped
5. 1 1/2 cup raw wild rice
6. 1 cup broken walnuts
7. 2 cup chopped celery
8. 1 the giblets, chopped
9. 1 teaspoon minced parsley
10. 1 teaspoon thyme
11. 1/2 teaspoon minced sage
12. 1 teaspoon salt
13. 1 freshly ground black pepper
14. 4 cup boiling chicken broth

Preparation method

Melt the butter with the oil in a heavy skillet or large saucepan and saute the onion until soft. Add the rice and cook, stirring often, until slightly colored. Add the walnuts, cook for 5 minutes, then add the celery, and cook until the rice is golden. Stir in the herbs and seasonings and the giblets.

Pour on the boiling liquid, and simmer until the liquid is absorbed, about 30 minutes, and the rice is just barely done.

Amounts may be adjusted to the size of the bird. This recipe should stuff a 15-lb turkey.
