Cold Brewed Iced Coffee

Ken read about this in the June 27, 2007 NYTimes and saved me the article since I was in Oswego, NY.

Put 2/3 c. of ground coffee (not instant) and 1-1/2 c. water into a mason jar and cover it. Let sit at room temp. for 12 hours or overnight.

Filter it (I used a Melitta cone filter) and refrigerate it. It will be strong, so be liberal with ice and milk.

Note: To make hot coffee, dilute concentrate one-to-one with water and microwave

Enjoy.

Judy and Mark's Wild Rice

Cook wild rice according to package instructions.

Saute garlic and ginger in olive oil. Add white rice and stir. Add appropriate amount of chicken broth for the amount of rice you're making. Cook.

Mix rices and serve. It's good cold, too.
