Ingredients:

• 2 cups long-grain rice
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1 tablespoon oleo
• 2 onions, finely chopped
• 3 stalks celery, diced
• 3 3/4 cups broth (vegetable or chicken)
• 2 tablespoons dried parsley
• 1 carrot, grated
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• Salt to taste

Instructions:

1. Preparation:

   • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

2. Saute Aromatics:

   • In a Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat.
   • Add the rice, chopped onions, and diced celery to the melted butter.
   • Cook, stirring often, until the rice turns light brown and emits a nutty aroma, which should take about 15 minutes.

3. Seasoning and Boiling:

   • Season the rice mixture with almost an excess of your preferred spices and seasonings. Don’t be afraid to go bold here; it ensures the flavors are robust and not lost during cooking.
   • Pour in the broth and add the dried parsley, grated carrot, soy sauce, and salt to taste.
   • Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, then turn off the heat.

4. Baking:

   • Cover the Dutch oven tightly with foil, ensuring no steam can escape.
   • Place the lid on top of the foil-covered Dutch oven.
   • Transfer the Dutch oven to the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes.

5. Resting and Serving:

   • Once baked, remove the Dutch oven from the oven and let it rest, covered, for an additional 15 minutes.
   • Carefully remove the lid and foil, fluff the rice pilaf with a fork, and serve hot.
