  1. This was great. I didn't use the beef bouillon, or celery, because I was out. But did everything else as written. Doubled the recipe and very little was left for 6 people.
     
  2. Why not put the rice in first? I tried putting the broth and seasonings first but chucked it.
     
  3. Great tasting rice. It was easy to throw in the rice cooker, thanks!
