2 c. Goose Valley wild rice
3 tbsp. unsalted butter
10 oz. mini marshmallows
1 tsp. vanilla extract

PREPARATION
To Puff Wild Rice: In a saucepan, heat ½ c. peanut oil to 375°F. Carefully scoop ¼ c. of raw wild rice at a time into the hot oil. Swirl the pan and strain out puffed rice. Place on a paper towel to absorb excess oil. Repeat until you have 3 c. of wild rice puffs.
In a large saucepan, melt the butter and marshmallow together. Add vanilla, Chinese five spice, and salt. Mix until spices are evenly distributed. Add wild rice puffs. Mix until rice and marshmallow are evenly distributed. Form in a 9-inch pan. Drizzle with melted white chocolate. Cut into squares and serve.
