Herbed Rice Mix
For Christmas gifts, Emily Chaney of Penobscot, Maine fills pint-size plastic zipper bags with her savory blend. "I include the cooking directions on a holly label," she says.
40 Servings
Prep/Total Time: 30 min.
Ingredients
1 package (3 pounds) long grain rice
2 cups dried celery flakes
2/3 cup dried minced onion
1/2 cup dried parsley flakes
2 tablespoons minced chives
1 tablespoon dried tarragon
3 to 4 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons pepper
ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS:
2/3 cup water
1 teaspoon butter
Directions
In a large bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Store in an
airtight container. Yield: 40 batches (10 cups total).
To prepare one serving of rice: In a saucepan over medium heat, bring
water and butter to a boil. Add 1/4 cup rice mixture. Reduce heat;
cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat; let stand for 5
minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork. Yield: 1
serving per batch.
Editor's Note:
To prepare more than 1 serving, multiply the rice mix, water and butter by the total number of desired servings and cook as directed.
