The Amazing World of Rice by Marie Simmons ($19.95, William Morrow) Rice seems to be neck-in-neck with corn in the race for most-written-about grain. This latest volume offers 150 recipes for pilafs, paellas, risottos, rice salad, rice puddings and more. It doesn’t have much in the way of color photos (there are none, in fact) or cutting-edge design. Nevertheless, this is a handy reference book written by the well-known Bon Appetit magazine contributor. |
