Armenian Rice Recipe

Armenian Rice Notes

I was served this wonderful rice at a thank-you dinner served by an Armenian family. I was in a choral group at the time, and the daughter of the family needed a choral group to conduct for her doctoral degree in choral conducting. Our group volunteered their time, and we were fed for our troubles.

Ingredients

4 cups cooked white rice, hot
2 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons pine nuts

Serves / Yields

4 servings

Preparation Instructions

Saute pine nuts in the butter until they take on a golden color. Be sure they don't burn, which can happen in an instant, if you are not watchful. Stir butter and nuts into hot white rice and serve. Yum!

Strawberries are too delicate to be picked by machine. The perfectly ripe ones even bruise at too heavy a human touch. It hit her then that every strawberry she had ever eaten--every piece of fruit--had been picked by calloused human hands. Every piece of toast with jelly represented someone's knees, someone's aching back and hips, someone with a bandanna on her wrist to wipe away the sweat. Why had no one told her about this before?
