Soubise (Braised Rice And Onions)

• 1/2 cup rice
• 4 quarts rapidly boiling water
• 1 1/2 tablespoons salt
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 2 lbs thinly sliced yellow onions (6-7 cups)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 1/4 cup whipping cream
• 1/4 cup grated swiss cheese
• 2 tablespoons softened butter
• 1 tablespoon minced parsley

1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
2. Drop the rice into 4 quarts of boiling salted water and boil for 5 minutes exactly. Drain immediately.
3. Add the 4 Tbsp of butter to a 3-quart, fireproof casserole and place in the oven.
4. When the butter is foaming in the casserole, stir in the onions. As soon as they are well coated with butter, stir in the rice and seasonings.
5. Cover and cook very slowly in the 300u0b0F oven for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally. The rice and onions should become very tender and will usually turn a light golden yellow.
6. Correct seasoning.
7. Just before serving, stir in the cream and cheese, and then the butter. Taste again for seasoning. Turn into a hot vegetable dish and sprinkle with parsley.
