Cooked on a dry hot cast iron griddle, skillet or a ceramic tile in the oven, 16 pancakes for two people, quick breakfast becomes a feast. Tastes great reheated in the microwave too, from frozen. The native wild rice is roasted when harvested and that gives a special nutty flavor to the pancakes.
Delicious when dipped in maple syrup.

I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use.
