  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1      c             Rice
   3      qt            Water -- boiling
   2      ts            Salt

For each cup of rice allow 3 qt of boiling water and 2 ts salt. Wash
the rice until the water is clear, drop it slowly into boiling salted
water, and boil gently for 20 minutes, or until tender when pressed
with thumb and forefinger. If the rice tends to stick to the kettle,
lift the grains with a fork from time to time but do not stir. As
soon as the grains are tender, remove from the fire, add cold water,
pour off at once, add more cold water, and pour off until all of the
starchy liquid has been washed out of the rice. Then drain the rice
in a colander, cover, and place over steam until the grains heat
through, turn into a hot serving dish, and add melted butter and a
few dashes of paprika.
