Really enjoyed this rice dish. The toasted almonds made a huge difference in the flavor. I would make this again, but would probably add a tablespoon of butter after adding the broth.

This dish is delicious. I added a few more mushrooms but that's about it. Also, it did require alittle more than 45 mins. to cook to absorb the water & broth.
Overall rating = A. Would definitely recommend to others.

This is very similar to my base recipe for rice pilaf. In a pinch, a large vegetable bullion cube can be substituted for the soy sauce and broth.
