Give 1 of each rice mixture to one person or individual recipes to different people. Tie a festive ribbon around each jar or baggie and a tag or card with a message that includes THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS: To cook, combine the rice mixture, 2 cups of cold water and 1 Tbs butter in a heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Cover and cook over low heat 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Makes 4-6 servings. I got this recipe years ago from a book of gifts from the kitchen from the 1970s or 1980s. One recipe each of all 4 mixtures makes 2 gifts yielding 4-6 servings, so the way I came up with total servings is 4 x 2 x (4 to 6) = 32 to 48. (Also good to keep for yourself for when you're in a hurry or to take camping.) Ingredients:
2 cups uncooked white rice |
1 envelope onion soup mix |
1 teaspoon dried parsley |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 cups white rice |
3 teaspoons bottled dried lemon peel |
2 teaspoons dried dill |
1 teaspoon dried chives |
1 teaspoon salt |
4 teaspoons chicken bouillon powder |
2 cups white rice |
4 teaspoons vegetarian bouillon powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 teaspoons dried celery flakes |
2 teaspoons onion flakes |
2 teaspoons green pepper flakes |
2 teaspoons red bell pepper flakes |
2 cups white rice |
1/4 green bell pepper flakes |
2 teaspoons parsley flakes |
2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon dried basil |
