 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1      c             Rice
  2      c             Water
  1 1/2  ts            Chicken bullion
  1      ts            Butter
  1                    Pickled ginger piece
  2      ts            Worcestershire sauce.

First, you should know that bullion often contains some sugar. The
Worcestershire sauce may also.

The pickled ginger can be found at any southeast Asian market. It
comes sliced, but for purposes of the recipe you need to julienne it
in *very* thin strips, and then cut the strips into 1/8" pieces.

Combine all ingredients except Worcestershire sauce and bring to
boil, stirring once or twice. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for
20 minutes or until done. Stir in Worcestershire.

Hope you like it. The pickled ginger is great over most dishes, if it
is cut thin enough. Unfortunately, the markets don't seem to be able
to get the same thin-cut ginger that can be found in some oriental
restaurants--why, no one knows. But cut thin as above, the ginger
doesn't become oppressive, and can be avoided by those who should be
eating something else.
