Cooking Minnesota Wild Rice with Andrew Zimmern || Food/Groups

- As the world’s most common food staple, rice is rarely a celebrity on the plate by itself. Which is why for this episode of Food/Groups, we went to a place where it is. The Star of the North: Minnesota.
The Land of 10,000 Lakes is also the land of wild rice -- a naturally occurring aquatic grass that’s knocked, finished, and sold by Native Americans whose ancestors have crisscrossed these waters in canoes doing more or less the very same thing for generations. And while legit hand-picked wild rice can get expensive, it’s an edible through-line that connects Minnesota’s pristine past with its modern culinary future. Which, when you think about it, is kinda wild.

Hmm. In a ten-minute video you can't take a few seconds to mention that wild rice isn't in fact rice? That's the kind of sloppiness that can turn an A into an A-minus.
I'm Native American from Minnesota harvesting and parching wild rice is WAY harder than it looks.

yo same

Yes, they did mention that.
Thank you for your harvesting. I only choose MN grown wild rice and it's well worth the price. I'd pay double hint hint
As a Minnesotan born and raised this had me smiling ear to ear. Wild Rice is amazing. Chicken Wild Rice soup? Don't EVEN get me started! Great video
Yummm. Thanks!
really represented Minnesota well in this
Thanks! Glad to hear you think so.
Agreed! Thank you!
Hell yeah, that's awesome to hear. Our director on this episode, Tyler Tronson, is actually from MN, so this was personal!

A little info for people who are grossed out by the worms:
Before being sold, the rice is dried, cleaned of worms, and toasted so that the husks and any other grossness is removed. I can't guarantee it doesn't have a bug or two, but certainly no more than most food products (let a bag of flour sit open at room temp for a while and see what happens). From every bag I've had, I've only seen uniform rice, no weird extra thick "grains" or anything suspicious.
Delicious and I never tried the rice or beer but you can just tell by looking. Thank you Mother Earth for this gift that you give us, the human people, everyday.
Finally Minnesota gets some credit
THE NORTH
Mini soda enjoy it
U mean us native people lol
@@PhantomMana Yup
this was super interesting! especially the focus on the native population and their relationship with rice.
Glad you liked it!
That's the most important part!
The focus on the native population? Lol. Do you know what it’s like on the reservations? How do you think they’re actually treated?
Born and raised in Minneapolis! This video made me so proud!
That's awesome to hear, Christian. Glad we did your home justice.
Im from Minnesota too but why would i be proud because of this video.
Hennepin County, represent
39th and Penn S/O OVER NORTH lol
Hopefully you support us indigenous peoples too!!!
I'm from Minnesota so I just automatically assumed that everyone knew and have had wild rice 😂
Simplicia same
I live in downtown Minneapolis just a block away from the brewery and I love this video. Makes me proud that I can call this city my home.
Hey, that's awesome! Thanks for watching.
Rahr is in Shakopee. You might be thinking of Surley or another micro brewery/bar
@@ASMRBully Lakes and Legends is right next to Loring Park. I’m not to sure what you’re talking about.
I didn't know that wild rice isn't common throughout the US. And yes, it really is as good as they describe it-especially in some Chicken Wild Rice Soup!
I was expecting a video showing how to cook wild rice and got a video that should be titled “A Cultural View On American Indian Minnesota Wild Rice”.
Minnesota represent!
MN Represent! I've lived in the Twin Cities for most of my life, chicken wild rice is a fave of mine. Love how this was done! :D
I've been to Minneapolis three times and ate very well indeed. Had a couple of Jucy Lucys of course and looked for tater tot hotdishes but never thought about chasing down some wild rice...not sure I had any actually. Shoot. Extremely interesting episode. Native American youth substance abuse is well known but never considered the labor implication with respect to tribal traditions/restrictions. Well done, Thrillist.
Hey, thanks! We appreciate it. Sounds like it's time for you to try some wild rice.
Tosh T wild rice is usually in soups
+Sarah Nater Interesting. I've had wild rice many times over the years almost always as a side dish; a couple of times as a main. Will have to look for it in soups. 👍
The food in Minneapolis blew us away, honestly. Not that we were expecting anything less, but it was just so consistently impressive. And yes -- the substance abuse, coupled with the draw of personal technology, and the gaming business, has definitely had a widespread impact on the lives of this generation of Ojibwe. It's a fraught topic for sure, and we were wary of glazing over it too much. Glad it got you thinking a bit! Thanks for watching & commenting.
+David Infante If you ever get back to Minneapolis, a restaurant called *_Wise Acre_* impressed. It kept coming up as a rec and did not disappoint.
This one was outstanding! Loved it!
Thanks! Stay tuned for more.
Hell yeah, thanks dude! The crew worked hard as hell on this shoot -- lotta obstacles to overcome. Glad you enjoyed.
Here because of Philly D, and because MN is tops.
The culture, the rice, the camerawork... Beautiful!
Wow the content on here just keeps getting better and better. Good job.
Thanks, man! We're glad you're enjoying it.
💃💃💃
The episode was a bowl full, a bowl full of wild rice!
Wow, what a compliment. I'm... bowled... over...
Rahr malting! My dad worked there for years. Great place.
Galactic is great too. Good bits of MN culture shown here, yay.
Sometimes they show up in weird costumes for delivery. Always a top pizza pick imo
This channel is severely underrated.
Spread the word!
So many good comments from people of Minnesota... Usually people completely Shit on where their from... I guess not Minnesotans
Thanks guys. I love wild rice!!
This channel is easily one of the best on CZcams and it's so sad that it doesn't get the attention it deserves.
Thank you! Spread the word.
Miigwetch for this thoughtful and respectful treatment of the rice and the people/traditions rooted to it.
Miigwetch for knowing how to say thank you in Anishinaabe ✨🥰
Awesome, wish to have ppl here in Indonesia that have same kind of perspective for native ingredients in every islands
Kewl shoutout to Galactic Pizza. Worked on the construction team when they opened, glad to see they are still going strong. The Shroomer was my face when I still lived in MN
thrillest really does right by these special city foods.
How do you only have 33k I don't understand
Great question. Spread the word!
BC THE WORLD IS CRUEL AND UNFAIR, AZUL (jkjk it's because we're still a relatively new channel! but we appreciate the sentiment!)
Seen the ad for this channel and clicked...
it said wild rice, and I could live off of it, if I could afford it for the whole family.
Subbed and Liked!
Even though I'm not one to take pretty pictures of food, I sure like to cook and eat it.
Amazing!
Thank you! We appreciate it.
NO U R
That rice is gorgeous! I love its taste. It should be the regular rice.
Anyone here from our president Philly D?
Hello from MINNESOTA Nation! Have a great fucking day.
👋👋👋
philiy d nation

MN wild rice is so tasty! Great video!
I know it's not "food" but an episode about all the award winning craft beers of Colorado would be cool. Here in co we don't have a 'food staple' but what we do got is good beers
Migwetch for keeping tradition!
Great video! Happy to see you come to my state!
Hey Everyone, check out our recent episode:
Tampa Bay's Iconic Cuban Sandwich - czcams.com/video/QPPOxMzNXEk/video.html
When you think about Cubans in Florida, you probably don’t think of Tampa. But you should! Sure, today, Miami has the biggest concentration of Cuban-Americans in the state -- and the country, for that matter. But back before Miami was even a city, it was here, in Tampa, that the cigar industry boomed and the iconic Cuban sandwich was born.
You know: soft Cuban bread, shredded pork, glazed ham, Swiss cheese, pickles, mustard, and -- as is custom ONLY in Tampa -- Genoa salami. And while Miami basks in its well-deserved reputation as the epicenter of modern Cuban America, 400,000 Tampans patiently wait for their town to get its historic Cubano due. So we came to Cigar City to do just that.
These videos are amazing
Thanks! Stay tuned for more!
Great video!
I love love wild rice.i never use pasta.i get it free from friends. & relatives.i have 3 children who are one half native.also have 10 or 15 grand children.i used to help my x harvest rice.i was the knocker.❤❤❤😮😮😮
My mom is from MN we are probably the only NYers who grew up on wild rice lol
So hard to find 100 percent wild rice in local supermarkets. Guess you have to special order.
I know uncle Ben’s and I’ve always like it but Dam I guess I’m missing out they don’t sell Minnesota wild rice where I’m from
MINNESOTAAAAA
I love wild rice. I only purchase Minnesota wild rice. Not that commercial California "wild rice"
What pesticides are used on the wild rice
None. It's 100% natural and pesticides are never needed.
Great video
Thanks!
YO IM FROM MN. I LIVE NEAR RICE LAKE REZ AND ME AND MY BUDDY FAIRBANKS GO OUT EVERY YEAR TO GATHER RICE. I RECOMMEND GOING TO A POW WOW SOMEDAY, IF YOU'RE LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET A CHANCE. IT'S LIT AF AND FRY BREAD IS THE BEST MUNCHIE. MN IS THE FUTURE. WE GOT WATER, WE GOT THE BEST PEOPLE. DON'T TELL ANYONE THO.
Hell yeah! Fry bread's the bomb. Bong and a biscuit? How about a fattie and some frybread? ;)
What’s the best cigarette brand to smoke while harvesting the wild rice? Hehe
MoreAmerican Marlboros
A6 Booj
Not American Spirits, black pack?
Spirits. School bus yellow pack
2 much trouble I had just as soon use jasmine rice
Boozoo, from Mahnomen Minnesota white earth indian reservation.
How do I order a bag of hand picked wild rice directly from the natives of Minnesota?
With guns
But what does the rice taste like?
Nutty. Earthy. Not rice. It's a grass seed. You gotta try KC brand or MN Harvest. Dont buy cali grown. It's not "wild"
I eat rice with deep African cultural significance.
It's called Uncle Ben's.
Do people eat the worms?
Zizania aquatica
I'm one of the few who has done this. It's becoming a lost skill sadly. Big rice lake and little rice lake are becoming poised with picked weed that over take the rice because of low level waters.
wow ethnic white people, thats amazing
Lost me at the worms.
gimmie the szechuan
Seeing europeans eat indigenous American foods is still pretty nightmarish.
Those rice lakes look like the PERFECT place to hide a body
Ouch my nuckin futz nah all the rice stalks are gone by the spring it's mostly open water until it starts to grow.
Wild rice isn't rice at all actually
I think it’s dumb to show people how we harvest our traditional foods
It's been widely known for 100 years. Why is it dumb?
Why ruin wild rice with aweful soy
Using wild rice to make pork fried rice, what is wrong with that guy
I know right? He didn't even add any MSG... haiyaa 😢
All I can see is the rice worms.....ugggg😒
Let's not forget, Minnesota has the worst drivers.
the land of 10000 lakes is Finland!
That's a country not a state. And Wisconsin has more lakes than MN. No one talks about that because the packers are cheaters and likely stole those lakes from the Norseman
@@ASMRBully In Minnesota, the definition of "lake" means it has to be a minimum of 10 acres. Wisconsin calls any old pond a lake. Minnesota has far more bodies of water than Wisconsin.
