[at-l] Recipe

[daveh@psknet.com (Dave Hicks)]

Look at the ingredients list.  If it says par-boiled, or even pre-cooked,
rice it is just that -- rice that was cooked for some time and then
dehydrated.  The longer it was cooked before dehydrating the less time it
needs to re-hydrate and finish cooking.

OTOH -- if it says something like "reconstituted" rice, it is the rice pasta
that k7 describes.
