WILD RICE AND CORN SALAD
Wild rice and corn grown in the heart of the midwest are the main ingredients of the deliciously different salad. The water chestnuts are really the secret ingredient that makes this dish special.

Steps:
- For the salad: Place the wild rice in a medium saucepan with 4 cups water and the kosher salt. Simmer uncovered until tender, about 50 minutes. Drain well, return to the saucepan and cover for 10 minutes.
- While the rice is cooking, heat the oil in a medium saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the corn kernels and saute until charred, about 5 to 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- For the vinaigrette: Whisk together the garlic, shallot, vinegar, mustard, lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. While continuously whisking, slowly stream in the oil until the dressing is emulsified.
- To serve: Combine the warm rice with the corn, edamame, green peas, chickpeas and onion. Pour 1/4 cup of the vinaigrette over top and toss well to evenly distribute. Allow to sit for 30 minutes, taste for seasoning and serve at room temperature. The remaining vinaigrette can be refrigerated for another use.
BELLEPEPPER'S ORZO AND WILD RICE SALAD
I enjoyed this salad at a well-known restaurant and when they wouldn't divulge the recipe, I created my own. Although a bit time consuming, everything can be prepared at least a day ahead, covered and refrigerated. I took this salad to the 2011 AR Buckeye Bash and am posting for those who requested the recipe. This salad may be served cold or at room temperature.
