CELERY FLAVORED RICE PILAF
Inspired By: Recipe featured on www.recipecottage.com

Ingredients:


Celery:

1 cup long-grain, converted rice
Flavor Packet
2 tablespoons butter
2 1/2 cups hot water
3 chicken bouillon cubes, crushed
3 tablespoons PureSpice ® dried celery flakes
3 dashes PureSpice ® pepper

1. Melt the butter in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Saute the ice, 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.
2.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.
3.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. cubes.
