Stir-fried Pork with Wild Rice Stem
"Wild rice (jiaobai) may not look like much, but it absorbs flavor beautifully and offers a pleasantly meaty bite. It is especially suited to summer cooking, traditionally valued for clearing heat, detoxifying, promoting urination, and quenching thirst. It is also said to help keep skin smooth, radiant, and supple. A vegetable this good would be a shame to miss."
