Beat in the milk, flour, and the remaining half of the salt. The batter will be slightly lumpy. [The batter may be refrigerated overnight, if desired.] 3. Preheat the oven to 450 F. Stir the rice into the batter. Place the butter or margarine in a 9 x 13-inch glass casserole (for each basic recipe for ten) and place the casserole in the oven until the butter is melted. Remove from the oven and stir in the bouillon cube and the Worcestershire sauce until dissolved. Return the casserole to the oven and leave until sizzling. Pour the wild-rice batter into the casserole and bake in the center of the oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until puffed and golden. 4. Cut into squares and serve immediately.
