The crunchiness o f peanut b rin k
and the tenderness o f rice make the
pair an excellent beginning for dessert.
For Peanut Bittle Parian, steam
cooked rice in milk until milk is ab­
sorbed. Cool. Then blend with
whipped cream, flavored with honey,
and chill. Spoon the chilled mixture
into parfait glasses (or use your pret­
tiest goblets) alternately with peanut
brittle combined with coconut maca­
roon crumbs. Results? Delectable!
R kt is an excelknt choice for any
summer meal, -ay the Rice Council
dietitians. Jt takes lin k time to cook,
needs no pre-cooking preparation,
and is ready to serve as it comes from
the cooking pot.
Because rice can be used in so many
ways, smart homemakers keep a sup­
ply o f cooked rice on hand at all times.
Cooked rice keeps in the refriger­
ator for one week and in the home
freezer up to eight months. Cover rice
before refrigerating and place in
freezer container before freezing.
T o reheat cooked rice in a saucepan,
add two tablespoons liquid for each
cup o f rice. Cover and steam four to
five minutes.
