16th c German rice recipe.
Rice cooked in a beef broth/ that is wellcooked/ and becomes a mush (porridge)/ put beef fat / that is removed from the meat/ therein/ so it becomes good. And when it is cooked/ and one wants to arrange it/ so put green parsley/ that is cut small (minced)/ thereunder/ so it becomes dainty and also good. (Rumpolt Vegetables 167)
My Version
I changed this to vegetable broth to make it a vegetarian dish. Butter was added to mimic the beef fat. Parsley was chopped and added at the end of cooking.
