Savoury Rice
- 1 cup rice
- 41⁄2 cups highly seasoned stock
- 2 tablespoons butter
Look over and wash rice as directed in the [previous recipes], bring it to a boil in the stock, with the butter, and cook it in a hay-box for one hour, standing the pail or pan that contains it in a larger pail of water, unless more than one cupful of rice is being cooked and the cooker-pail would be at least two-thirds full. Serve with a border of salted peanuts. The rice should be moist but not sticky when cooked.
Serves eight or ten persons.
