Traditional Rice Consomme Recipe
When I was growing up in the Deep South, rice was always served “plain” for a good reason: It was going to be covered with gravy. It arrived, fluffy as a cloud, alongside the fried chicken, roast beef, or country-fried steak. If it didn’t, complaints arose—unless, of course, there were homemade biscuits to drench with gravy.Then someone discovered that rice could be baked, and a raft of dishes came upon the scene. The flavor of the recipe below outranks any prepared rice dish I’ve tried.

1 cup uncooked white or brown rice
1 small can sliced mushrooms, drained
1 cup onion, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste
