Another recipe from Great Good Food. I really like
this one, I serve it with a good whole grain roll
and spinach salad.

Black Rice adapted from “Great Good Food” by Julee Rosso

1 cup black beans
3 – 4 1/2 cups broth or water
1 small onion, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup short-grain white rice
1/4 cup white wine
1 tomatoe, coarsely chopped
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
pinch cayenne
salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro

1. Soak the bean in 1 quart of cold water overnight.
Drain and rinse.

2. Place 3 cups of broth and the beans in a stockpot,
and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 2
to 2 1/2 hours, or until tender. Drain the beans and
reserve the broth and the beans. Set aside.

3. Place 1 1/2 cups of the bean broth in a small
saucepan (if there isn’t enough, add water to make 1 1/2
cups). Place over low heat to keep warm.

4. In a stockpot over high heat, heat a couple of table
spoons of the broth. Add the onion, and garlic and saute
until the onion is softened, about 5 minutes. Add the rice
and stir constantly for 1 minute. Add the wine and cook
for 2 minutes. Add the tomatoe and cook for 2 minutes.

5. Gradually add the bean broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring
until the liquid is absorbed before adding more broth. This
will take 20 to 25 minutes. Add the beans and the remaining
broth. Season with cumin, cayenne, and salt and pepper to
taste. Remove from the heat and stir in the cilantro; serve
immediately.

From: “Lisa E. Loewy”

This an Italian style rice dish made with arborio rice, a short fat
(almost round) grain of rice. Preparation, while in no way difficult,
does require attention. You will be stirring almost the whole time.
The final product is a creamy rice, almost a savory rice pudding.

1 part arborio rice (I buy it at Williams Sonoma but I work
there) No need to rinse.
3 parts hot liquid (I use veggie stock from Fresh Fields, a local
“good for you” grocery)
whatever you like to use for sauteing (a spritz of Pam and some crushed garlic)

Saute the rice over a medium to high heat until translucent.
Add one half a cup or so of the stock and stir. Reduce
heat to somewhere between medium and low. The stock will absorb
into the rice. When absorbed, add another half cup or so of
stock and continue stirring. keep stirring and adding stock.
The whole process takes twenty to thirty minutes.

I usually throw in a cup of frozen veggies when the rice is
almost done (corn and peas are good) for texture. My boss adds
mushrooms. Also good.
