NUTTY BROWN RICE PILAF
The pine nuts add the nutty flavour while the raisins bring a sweetness to the rice. I found this recipe in Canadian Living and it has become a staple. I wasn't a fan of brown rice until now. Try different brands as they do make a difference in texture and flavour, and the time for cooking can vary. Be careful when adding the pinch of cinnamon that a pinch is all you add or the flavour can be overpowering. Great as left overs.

NUTTY WILD RICE SALAD
Wild rice is sensational in this chilled salad. The toasted almonds complement the nuttiness of the rice, while red wine vinegar and soy sauce make a tangy dressing. I'll often serve the salad in lettuce cups, and sometimes I'll add diced ham and asparagus to turn it into a main-dish salad.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375. Soak rice in water for ten minutes (in the pot you will cook it in).
- While rice soaks, mix almond butter and milk throroughly in a small bowl. Set aside. Begin to chop carrots, onion, garlic and ginger.
- Drain and rinse rice, and add fresh water. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer on medium-low for eight minutes.
- While rice cooks, saute carrots, onion, garlic and ginger in a pan with olive oil until they begin to be tender. While these are cooking, stir occasionally and chop beet greens into bite-size pieces.
- When rice is cooked, turn off heat and let stand, covered, for ten minutes.
- While rice stands, add beet greens to vegetable saute and cook until just tender. I prefer not to overcook these so you still have a variety of textures in the casserole and it doesn't turn into a "blob".
- When rice has stood for ten minutes, remove lid, add almond butter and milk mixture, and stir thoroughly. Add vegetable saute mixture and stir thoroughly.
- Pour mixture (should be very thick) into a medium casserole and top with paprika and a bit of salt.
- Cook at 375 for ten minutes, covered. Enjoy!

NUTTY GREEN RICE
Steps:
- Bring water to boil and add rice. Stir and simmer covered for 45 minutes, do not stir. Remove from heat and let sit for another 10 minutes; then remove cover and allow to cool. While rice is cooking, blend almonds, parsley, garlic, oil, and lemon juice in food processor. When rice is cool, stir in nut mixture and add cucumber. Salt and pepper to taste.
Tips:
- Choose the right rice: Short-grain or medium-grain rice is best for nutty rice because it has a higher starch content, which helps to create a creamy texture.
- Rinse the rice before cooking: This helps to remove the starch and prevent the rice from sticking together.
- Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the rice from burning.
- Add aromatics to the cooking water: Aromatics such as garlic, onion, and ginger can help to add flavor to the rice.
- Cook the rice over low heat: This will help to prevent the rice from boiling over and becoming mushy.
- Let the rice rest before serving: This will help the rice to absorb the cooking liquid and become fluffy.
Conclusion:
Nutty rice is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish or as a main course. With its nutty flavor and creamy texture, it is a popular choice for many people. By following the tips above, you can easily make perfect nutty rice at home. Enjoy!
