RICE PILAF WITH FRESH DILL, WALNUTS AND RAISINS
Reminiscent of flavors of the Middle East and surrounding area, in this recipe I substituted basmati rice; or use long grain white rice if basmati is not available. From Bon Appetit September 1997 with a few small changes.

RICE WITH ALMONDS AND RAISINS
The rice is cooked in chicken broth instead of water to give it a good flavor. This dish would complement any meat, poultry, or fish. Delicious!
