No, you are nowhere near as boring as me. I get the Pulitzer Prize for boring food and boring life.

LOL! I love to cook all kinds of food.Mexican food is my favorite. I want @Subduction Zone to come down and cook some for me since that is his specialty.
Tonight I had roast pork shoulder with fennel bulb, mashed potatoes, and fresh green beans. I had never used fennel before and it needed to be used. I ended up chopping it up and putting the pork on top of it and roasting the whole thing in a Dutch oven I don't know if it was the fennel bulb or not but the pork was amazing.

Find a cooking show that you like. Try some of their recipes. If you have eaten that cuisine you have a good idea what it should taste like. You might fail a few times, but that is how we learn.

Straight wild rice or a wild rice blend? Wild rice itself is not a rice, it is a grass seed. If it was white and black it was a blend. Wild rice is almost black in color. I love it straight.
Weetabix for breakfast
It's almost time for a ham sandwich for lunch.
For dinner... Basil and tomato soup. Pork chops, mashed potatoes, roast potato carrots, apple sauce, gravy. Followed by a walnut pound cake I've just made.

I love it straight too but it's impossible to get here. We have to settle for a blend of white, brown and black.
I misread that as poitin.
The reason drink alcohol so rarely and have never been drunk since i had poitin almost 35 years ago.
Plain old wild rice, not that God awful 90 second stuff. I know it's not rice but that's what they call it probably because grass seeds doesn't sound that appealing.
Supermarkets sell it here and I've seen it on ebay and Amazon, might be worth a try. Although I seem to remember the Amazon price being ridiculous.

It is so good. But it takes a while to cook. I had no idea that it was available in Australia.
The Amazon price the crazy here too, with acl fortune for delivery on top.
Why wouldn't it be?

There can be a huge range in price. I have seen small boxes of it from Minnesota where it probably was wild wild rice at four or more times the price of domestic wild rice grown in California. I always have some at certain meals even if I am the only one to eat it. Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner are two of them.

Last year it was five bucks a pound at Trader Joe's.

It is a US, or sometimes Canadian product that can take a while to accept.
Amazon.fr was 23€ for 300gram plus €8.50 shipping. That's a definite no chance price I'll do with mixed.

Wow!! That is more expensive than Minnesota wild rice would be here. Divide that total price by eight or nine and that would be what it is here, though to be fair I have not priced it since this wave of inflation.
