    List of Ingredients




    1 cup long-grain, converted rice
    Flavor Packet
    2 tablespoons butter
    2 1/2 cups hot water

    Melt the butter in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Saute the rice,
    stirring constantly, until it takes on a translucent quality; do not
    let the
    kernels pop. Slowly stir in the water, then the Flavor Packet; bring to
    a
    full boil; cover and lower heat. Simmer 20 to 25 minutes, or until
    nearly
    all of liquid is absorbed and the rice looks just a bit too moist to
    serve.
    Turn off heat and let stand for 10 minutes before uncovering and
    serving.

    Each recipe makes one flavor packet. Also, these recipes are meant for
    bouillon cubes that mix with 8 oz. of water. If you prefer to
    substitute
    bouillon cubes that mix with 6 oz. of water, or powder, you will need
    to
    figure the differences accordingly. Three 8 oz. cubes equal four 6 oz.
