    Welcome to The German Corner! Feel free to chat or share recipes with us! :)

     

    Here is a little info on rice.....

     

    Rice

    Rice is one of the most popular grains in the world. It is consumed as a staple by nearly every culture except those on the fringes of the planet. Rice is a semi-aquatic plant that requires constant moist conditions for survival. Thus rice can only be grown in certain regions. Yet it is relatively easy to grow and has great storing qualities.

    Rice is mainly a starch, and as such it is used to complement a wide variety of foods in a seemingly infinite number of recipes. To find out more about rice, consult our table of contents below:

    • We present a History of Rice. The spread of rice as a staple crop seems to have begun in China.
    • There are many Rice Varieties and even some products that are called rice which do not fall into the proper scientific category.
    • Rice can be grown in a greenhouse, on small farms, or on large tracts using huge farm machinery.
    • Rice Preparation is quite simple and requires only elementary utensils.
    • In Cooking with Rice we find a versatile and energizing grain.
    • Rice Steamers are available at our aStore.
    • Find other information about rice or related topics at Rice Resources.

    Many products may also be made from rice, including rice wine, vinegar, cakes, and flour. In the United States puffed rice is made into a popular cereal known as Rice Krispies. Few children or even adults have not been exposed to rice krispie candy, a kind of puffed rice and marshmallow mixture. Rice has proven itself over time to vital to the advancement of human history and the feeding of humankind

    Making Risotto

    By:   Allrecipes Staff

    Often thought of as "restaurant food," risotto has made many inroads to the home kitchen as it proves itself to be versatile, delicious, and actually easy to make.

    Though thought to be a difficult dish--constant stirring and attention are hallmarks of risotto directions--it only takes making risotto once to see it is a much more straightforward meal than most cookbooks would have you realize.


    The Rice

    If it's called risotto, it must begin with the rice. Classically, Carnaroli or Arborio rice is used. Short and plump, they are high in starch and able to absorb quite a bit of liquid without becoming mushy. But don't get too mired in the details of the rice. Any small, starchy grain, be it rice, pearl barley, spelt, or farro--even orzo pasta--can be cooked risotto-style for delicious results

    I think I can, I think I can, I think I can do it!!!! :)

    Barley Mushroom Risotto
    Submitted by: MOLSON7
    Rated: 4 out of 5 by 20 members
    Prep Time: 15 Minutes
    Cook Time: 50 Minutes
    Ready In: 1 Hour 5 Minutes
    Yields: 6 servings

    "This barley risotto is delicious and charming. It makes a nice side dish for steak or roasted meats. Especially when you want to serve something a little different."
    INGREDIENTS:

    5 cups chicken broth
    1 tablespoon butter
    1 onion, chopped
    1 cup pearl barley
    3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
    1 bay leaf
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1 pound mushrooms, sliced
    2 garlic, chopped
    2 tablespoons chopped fresh
    parsley

    DIRECTIONS:

    1. Bring chicken broth to a boil in a saucepan. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, and saute for 5 minutes. Add the barley, thyme, bay leaf and 2 cups of the hot broth. Bring to a boil, and reduce heat to low, and simmer until most of the broth is absorbed, about 10 minutes. Pour in remaining broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring and allowing it to become absorbed before adding more. This process takes about 50 minutes.
    2. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large skillet. Saute mushrooms in the hot oil until tender. Add garlic, and cook for about 3 more minutes. Stir in the barley mixture and parsley. Remove bay leaf, and serve.

    Dried cherries1 take the place of raisins2 in this brown sugar sweetened rice pudding3. This updated dessert4 begins with raw rice5, so it will take more time to cook than one using pre-cooked rice.

    Prep Time: 15 minutes

    Cook Time: 2 hours, 30 minutes

    Ingredients:

    • 1-3/4 cups water
    • 1/4 cup lemon juice
    • 1 cup dried cherries
    • 1/2 cup uncooked rice
    • 4 cups milk
    • 2/3 cup light brown sugar
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • Rind of 1/2 lemon, finely chopped
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

    Preparation:

    Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Butter a 1-1/2 quart baking dish.

    In a saucepan, heat the water and lemon juice to boiling. Remove from the heat and drop in the dried cherries6. Let them sit for 3 minutes to absorb the liquid and plump up.

    Combine the rice7, milk, sugar, and salt. Bake in the prepared baking dish for 1 hour, stirring often so the rice doesn't settle to the bottom. Stir in the lemon rind, cinnamon8, and cherries.

    Return the dish to the oven and bake 1-1/2 hours more, or until the milk has been absorbed.

    Yield: 6 servings
