Ingredients

• 1 1/2 tsp salt
• Dash fresh pepper
• 2 tbsp butter
• 3 1/2 cups boiling water
• Additional butter.

Preparation

Step 1

In a 1 1/2 quart uncreased casserole dish with tight fitting lid (use foil to cover casserole dish and also cover with a lid to ensure a tight seal), combine rice, salt, and pepper. Dot with butter and pour boiling water in, and stir until butter is melted. Cover and bak in a 350 oven for 45 minutes. No peeking or stirring.

Fluff up lightly before serving and mix in generous amounts of butter to taste.
