BROWN RICE, TOMATOES AND BASIL
Steps:
- Bring 2 1/4 cups water to a boil and add the rice and 1 teaspoon of the salt. Return to a boil, cover, and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes, until the rice is tender and all the water is absorbed. Transfer the rice to a bowl.
- Whisk together the vinegar, sugar, olive oil, remaining teaspoon of salt, and a pinch of pepper. Pour over the rice. Add the tomatoes and basil. Mix well and check the seasonings. Serve at room temperature.
SPRING VEGETABLE AND RICE SALAD
Steps:
- Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Salt generously with kosher salt, and return to a boil. While the water is coming to a boil, fill a medium bowl with ice water and keep it nearby.
- Add the sugar snap peas and asparagus and cook for 2 minutes, then drain and immediately plunge the drained vegetables into the cold water to stop the cooking. Let sit in the cold water for 2 minutes, then drain again.
- While the vegetables are in the water bath, in a large bowl combine the mayonnaise, olive oil, honey, lemon juice, mustard, and salt and pepper.
- Add the cooled blanched vegetables, rice, beets and scallions and toss to combine. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:
- Follow package directions for 4 servings, but simmer rice in stock rather than water; season with salt and pepper.
HERBED BASMATI RICE
Steps:
- Combine the rice, 1 3/4 cups water, the salt, and butter in a small heavy-bottomed saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce the heat to low, stir once, and simmer, covered tightly, for 15 minutes. (I need to pull the pot half off the burner to keep it from boiling over.) Turn off the heat and allow the rice to sit covered for 5 minutes. Add the parsley, dill, scallions, and pepper. Fluff with a fork, and serve warm.
EASY NO-FAIL PERFECT FLUFFY BASMATI - TEXMATI RICE
This make fluffy basmati every time- easy and comes out perfect. I like the Texmati brand of basmati-its available in many supermarkets and no rinsing is required. You can double, triple or quadruple this for more servings.
