Rice is nice.<br />

Rice is the seed of the monocot plants Oryza sativa (Asian rice) or Oryza glaberrima (African rice). As a cereal<br />

grain, it is the most widely consumed staple food for a large part of the world's human population, especially in Asia<br />

and the West Indies. It is the grain with the second-highest worldwide production, after maize (corn), according to<br />

data for 2010.<br />

Onigiri are Japanese rice balls. They’re fun to make and are a staple of Japanese lunchboxes (bento). You can put<br />

almost anything in an onigiri; try substituting grilled salmon, pickled plums, beef, pork, turkey, or tuna with<br />

mayonnaise.”<br />

Rice is the seed of the monocot<br />

plants Oryza sativa (Asian rice) or<br />

Oryza glaberrima (African rice). As<br />

a cereal grain, it is the most widely<br />

consumed staple food for a large part<br />

of the world's human population,<br />

especially in Asia and the West Indies.<br />

It is the grain with the secondhighest<br />

worldwide production, after<br />

maize (corn), according to data for<br />

2010.<br />

Since a large portion of maize crops<br />

are grown for purposes other than<br />

human consumption, rice is the most<br />

important grain with regard to human<br />

nutrition and caloric intake,<br />

providing more than one fifth of the<br />

calories consumed worldwide by the<br />

human species.<br />

There are many varieties of rice and<br />

culinary preferences tend to vary regionally.<br />

In the Far East, there is a<br />

preference for softer and stickier varieties.<br />

Because of its importance as<br />

a staple food, rice has considerable<br />

cultural importance. Rice is often<br />

directly associated with prosperity<br />

and fertility. Therefore, there is the<br />

custom of throwing rice at weddings.<br />

The traditional method for cultivating<br />

rice is flooding the fields while,<br />

or after, setting the young seedlings.<br />

This simple method requires sound<br />

planning and servicing of the water<br />

damming and channeling, but<br />

reduces the growth of less robust<br />

weed and pest plants that have no<br />

submerged growth state, and deters<br />

vermin. While flooding is not mandatory<br />

for the cultivation of rice, all<br />

other methods of irrigation require<br />

higher effort


Issue 3 - March 2013 - Pure Simplicity | 5<br />

Onigiri Japanese<br />

Rice Balls<br />

4 cups uncooked short-grain<br />

white rice<br />

4 1/2 cups water<br />

1 cup water<br />

1/4 teaspoon salt<br />

1/4 cup bonito shavings (dry fish<br />

flakes)<br />

2 sheets nori (dry seaweed), cut<br />

into 1/2-inch strips<br />

2 tablespoons sesame seeds<br />

Yields: 8 Servings<br />

Wash the rice, combine rice and 4<br />

1/2 cups water in a saucepan. Bring<br />

to a boil over high heat, stir occasionally.<br />

Reduce heat to low; cover.<br />

After water is absorbed, 15 to 20<br />

minutes. Let rice rest, for 15 minutes<br />

to allow rice to cool.<br />

Combine 1 cup water with the salt.<br />

Use this water to dampen hands to<br />

handle rice.<br />

Divide one portion of rice in two.<br />

Create a dimple in the rice and fill<br />

with a heaping teaspoon of bonito<br />

flakes. Cover with the remaining<br />

portion of rice and press lightly to<br />

enclose filling inside rice ball. Gently<br />

press the rice to shape into a<br />

triangle. Wrap with a strip of nori.<br />

Sprinkle with sesame.<br />

Mushroom<br />

Risotto<br />

Mushroom Risotto<br />

consectetur adipiscing elit. Ut est elit, auctor sit<br />

amet porttitor nec, dignissim ac orci<br />

2 Tbsp butter<br />

2 cups flavorful mushrooms cut into<br />

half inch to inch pieces<br />

2/3 cup brandy/dry white wine<br />

5-6 cups chicken stock<br />

1/3 cup of peeled and minced shallots<br />

(or 1/3 cup of yellow or white<br />

onion, finely chopped)<br />

1 3/4 cups arborio rice<br />

1/3 cup freshly grated<br />

Parmesan cheese<br />

Salt and black pepper<br />

2 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley<br />

Yields: 4-6 Servings<br />

The recipe calls for risotto rice, Italian rice varieties that are high in a<br />

particular type of starch, with grains that are shorter and fatter than most<br />

other rices: Arborio, Carnaroli and Vialone Nano are the most famous.<br />

Bring stock to a simmer. Melt the<br />

butter in a saucepan over medium<br />

heat. Add mushrooms and shallots<br />

and sauté about 5 minutes. Add the<br />

rice and stir to combine.<br />

Add brandy, bring to a boil, and reduce<br />

liquid by half, about 3-4 minutes.<br />

Add simmering stock, 1/2 cup<br />

at a time, stirring enough to keep the<br />

rice from sticking. Stir the rice almost<br />

constantly. Wait until the stock<br />

is almost absorbed, add the next 1/2<br />

cup. Will take about 25 mins.<br />

Stir in the Parmesan cheese and season<br />

to taste. Garnish with chopped<br />

fresh parsley.


Strawberry Topping<br />

1 pint strawberries, cleaned and<br />

stemmed<br />

1/3 cup white sugar<br />

1 teaspoon vanilla<br />

Yields: 4 Servings<br />

Cut about 1/3 of the strawberries in half. In a saucepan over medium high<br />

heat, combine strawberries, sugar and vanilla. Cook, stirring occasionally,<br />

until thick. Remove from heat.<br />

In a blender, puree about 1/3 of sauce, then mix back into remainder. Store<br />

in refrigerator.

& Basil<br />

Lobster Pasta<br />

1 large (2 pound) fresh lobster<br />

3 tablespoons butter<br />

1 large onion, chopped<br />

1 bunch of fresh basil, chopped<br />

3 cloves garlic, chopped<br />

1 can diced tomatoes<br />

4 tablespoons olive oil<br />

4 teaspoons salt<br />

1 teaspoon black pepper<br />

1 tablespoon ground cinnamon<br />

1 cup heavy cream<br />

1 package dried spaghetti<br />

1 tablespoon butter<br />

1 clove garlic, minced<br />

1 bunch fresh parsley, chopped<br />

Yields: 4 Servings<br />

Growing Basil<br />

Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add<br />

the lobster & cook until bright red.<br />

As soon as the lobster starts cooking,<br />

melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a<br />

large skillet over medium heat. Add<br />

the onion and 3 cloves of garlic and<br />

basil. Cook and stir just to release<br />

the liquid. Do not let them brown.<br />

When the lobster is done place it on<br />

a cutting board and use a big knife<br />

to cut it in half lengthwise. Place the<br />

halves meaty side down into the skillet<br />

with the onion and garlic. Cook<br />

for about 3 minutes.<br />

Bring another pot of water to a boil<br />

and season with a little salt. Add the<br />

spaghetti and cook for 8 minutes, or<br />

until tender.<br />

Add the tomatoes to the skillet bring<br />

to a boil. Add the olive oil, salt, pepper<br />

and cinnamon. Cook for about<br />

7 min. Slowly pour in the cream,<br />

stirring constantly. The sauce will<br />

become a nice pink color. Turn the<br />

heat down to medium-low.<br />

Drain the spaghetti. Stir in the remaining<br />

butter and garlic. Pour the<br />

tomato sauce over the spaghetti and<br />

arrange the two lobster halves in the<br />

center.<br />

Start seed indoors four to six weeks before last frost. Fill flats with equal parts perlite, vermiculite, and peat. Press<br />

soil slightly to eliminate air pockets. Dampen soil. Drop one to two seeds into each container. Cover lightly with soil.<br />

Cover containers with clear plastic kitchen wrap leave in a sunny window.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Take a<br />

whole, 3 1/2 pound chicken. Cut into<br />

8 pieces (or ask butcher to do it).<br />

Place pieces in a large bowl. Add 2<br />

tbs Seasoning mix, 1/4 cup Worcestershire<br />

sauce, and 1/4 cup hot sauce<br />

(or pepper sauce) into the bowl and<br />

run into chicken. Then place the<br />

chicken onto a sheet pan and into the<br />

oven. Completely cook chicken (approximately<br />

20-25 minutes). Remove<br />

from oven, let cool, and place into<br />

refrigerator to chill.<br />

Take 2 bunches of collard greens.<br />

Clean and remove stems. Cut into 1<br />

1/2-inch squares. Wash thoroughly<br />

and set aside.<br />

Heat an 8-quart pot on medium<br />

flame. Add 3 tbs butter and melt.<br />

2 cups onions, 1 cup bell pepper, 1<br />

cup celery, 1 tbs fresh chopped garlic<br />

and 2 tbs seasoning mix. Stir and<br />

cook for 15 minutes. Then, deglaze<br />

the pan by stirring in 3 cups chicken<br />

stock. Reduce flame to low. Next,<br />

slowly add the greens. When all the<br />

greens have been added, stir and<br />

cook for an additional 15-20 minutes.<br />

Heat an 8" skillet on medium flame.<br />

When skillet is hot, add 1/2 lb bacon<br />

(diced into 1/2-inch squares). Render<br />

until crispy, and golden brown<br />

(approximately 15 minutes). When<br />

cooked, add the bacon and fat to the<br />

simmering collard greens. Continue<br />

simmering until greens are tender.<br />

Make have to add more chicken<br />

stock, if necessary.<br />

Take 2 bowls and 1 package corn<br />

tortilla chips (chips may be flavored<br />

with tomates, be creative).. Place a<br />

handful of chips in a food processor<br />

and pulse several times until they<br />

are in small pieces, but not dust.<br />

Continue grinding until there are<br />

2 cups ground chips. (Note: If you<br />

don't have a food processor, simply<br />

crumble the chips by hand.) Place<br />

chips in bowl #1. Also add 4 cups<br />

flour, and 2 tbs seasoning mis. In<br />

bowl #2, add 3 eggs and 2 cups<br />

milk, whip ingredients.<br />

Make a mini-deep fryer by heating<br />

a 4-6 quart pot on a high flame,<br />

adding 6 cups corn oil and heating<br />

to 360 degrees.
