My guess is that your mom used "hand parched" wild rice. If rice is parched slowly and in small batches it puffs considerably larger than the commercial wild rice available in most stores. This is the usual method for processing "wild" wild rice. It is also much larger when cooked and cooks in about 1/3 the time.
