Recipe - Raisin Curried Wild Rice Mix

1 cup Wild rice
4 Chicken bouillon cubes,
crumbled
3 tablespoon Dried minced onion
One half cup Raisins
One half teaspoon Curry powder

I can't remember who wanted ideas for different mixes of beans etc. to put
in jars but I found a great book with TONS of ideas. IT's called The
Perfect Mix (90 GiftGiving Ideas for Bread, Soup, Dessert, and Other
Homemade Mixes) by Diane Phillips. (copyright 1993) It gives ideas on how
to package gifts, which ones go together nicely and recipes for the mixes.
Heres one example:

Makes 1 Three fourths cups

The perfect accompaniment for sauteed chicken or broiled cornish game hens.
Present this rice mix layered in a glass jar, and tie ribbons to the neck
of the jar.

In a glass jar that holds 1 Three fourths cups, pour the rice into the bottom. Layer
the rest of the ingredients in the order given.

To prepare:

4 cups water

In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Add the Wild Rice Mix and
reduce the heat. Cover and simmer about 50 minutes, adding more water if
needed. (This also had 3 tablespoons butter which I omitted)

This is just one of many ideas in this book! There are ideas on desserts
too. Thanks to whoever brought up this idea!!
