Instructions
- Cook wild rice according to package directions. Cool completely.
- In a large bowl, combine sauerkraut, apple, celery, carrot, onion and cooled rice. In a small bowl, whisk the first five dressing ingredients until sugar is dissolved; stir in herbs. Add to sauerkraut mixture; toss to combine.
- Refrigerate, covered, at least 4 hours to allow flavours to blend. Stir in walnuts just before serving.
