Dried apricots and golden raisins lend sweetness and pretty color to this flavorful rice mix from Emily Chaney of Penobscot, Maine. I usually serve this special side dish with fish or chicken, she relates. Dotted with almonds it gets rave reviews from my family. Ingredients:
11 cups uncooked long grain rice |
4-1/2 cups diced dried apricots |
2-1/2 cups golden raisins |
1-1/2 cups slivered almonds |
1 cup chicken bouillon granules |
3 tablespoons brown sugar |
additional ingredients: |
2 cups water |
1 tablespoon butter |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine the first six ingredients. Store in airtight containers in a cool dry place for up to 6 months. Yield: 21 batches (21 cups total).
2. To prepare rice: In a saucepan, combine 1 cup rice mix, water and butter. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 25-30 minutes or until water is absorbed. Yield: 4 servings per batch.
