Although we enjoyed this strudel and would certainly make it again, the directions were not quite clear for making the rice. I'm assuming you are to add the 1 tbsp. of butter to the broth and rice when cooking it. I'm also assuming you are to add the onions to the cooked rice. The directions did not say this. Other than that, the strudel was very tasty and something a little different.
