Recipe: Brown rice pilaf
Recipe: Brown rice pilafDietitian's tip: Any brown rice works in this recipe, but darker toned Wehani looks particularly good. Invest in the pistachio oil if you can. Its flavor is so intense that just a bit makes this light side dish taste incredibly rich. Serves:

Ingredients
DirectionsIn a saucepan over high heat, combine the rice, water, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and the saffron. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 45 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and keep warm. In a small bowl, combine the orange zest and juice, oil, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Whisk to blend. Pour the orange mixture over the warm rice. Add the nuts and apricots and toss gently to mix and coat. Serve immediately. © 1998-2013 Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research (MFMER). All rights reserved.
