    List of Ingredients




    Rice Salad

    1 cup long grain white rice

    2 cups chicken broth

    1 teaspoon salt

    1 teaspoon salted butter

    Dressing

    1/4 cup olive oil or 2 tablespoons olive oil and

    2 tablespoons vegetable oil

    2 tablespoons white wine vinegar

    2 tablespoons prepared mustard

    1 1/2 teaspoons salt

    1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

    scant 1/8 teaspoon cayenne

    2/3 cup ripe olives, cut into large pieces

    1/2 cup chopped celery

    1/4 cup chopped dill pickles

    1/4 cup chopped pimiento, drained

    2/3 cup mayonnaise

    1/4 cup finely chopped onion

    Garnish

    4 crisp leaves romaine lettuce

    2 hard-boiled eggs, sliced

    2 small ripe tomatoes, cut into wedges

    Recipe



    Cook the rice in the chicken broth with the salt and butter. When rice is cooked, set the pot aside.

    In a large stainless steel or porcelain bowl combine the ingredients for the dressing. Add the hot rice and

    toss to mix thoroughly. Let cool for about 15 minutes at room temperature, then cover the bowl with

    plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 2 hours before serving.

    To serve, put a crisp leaf of romaine lettuce on each salad plate. Put one-quarter of the rice salad on each

    lettuce leaf, then put 2 to 3 thin slices of hard-boiled egg on top of the rice and a wedge of tomato on each side.
