When boiled or steamed rice is ordered, try preparing it in this way.
Wash a cupful of it thoroughly and put into the double boiler with
just enough water to cover it. When the rice is nearly done, pour off
the water, if any remains, and add one cup of milk and a little salt.
Let the rice cook thoroughly till done. Beat an egg well, and the last
thing before taking the rice from the fire stir the egg in as lightly
as possible, and serve hot with sugar and cream. The egg makes the
dish a bit more attractive and considerably more nutritious.
