I love inventing new herb and spice combination to increase
flavor of our meals. Variety is spice of life and with all 1,000's of herbs and spices our palates should never be bored!There is such good health and cost benefit by making your own mixes. You won't have unnecasary salt added to your mixes and you will save money too! Once you get a whiff or your own herb mixes you'll never go back to those little tins on grocery store shelf.
Herbed Rice Mix
1 lb long grain rice 1/3 cup dried minced onion 1/3 cup dried parsley flakes 1 tablespoon dried chives 1 tablespoon dried tarragon 1 tablespoon of ground celery seed 1/2 teaspoons salt 1 teaspoons pepper
Mix ingredients together and store in canning jars Add a raffia bow and instruction card and you now have a gift!
Put 1 1/3 cup of water in a pan and bring to a boil, add 1/2 cup of rice mix and simmer for 20 minutes , fluff with a fork you can also add a dried chili pepper to mix if you like some heat!
