Crawling Swamp Rice
- one coarsely chopped onion
- two minced cloves of garlic
- one chopped bell pepper
- one stick finely diced celery
- shotglass of bacon drippings
- one-quarter the meat of a sow's leg, from knee to ankle, cured and cubed
- handful of minced parsley
- one crumbled bay leaf
- one large pinch of crumbled thyme
- one large pinch cayenne pepper
- small handful of salt
- three crushed tomatoes, thickened down to a thin paste
- one large tomato, diced.
- pint of cold water
- pint of rice
- three raw par'chuul'va, shelled, devined, and diced[1]
- Method
- Set a large kettle-not iron: bronze is more pleasing to the Dragon Below!-over a moderate flame.
- Sauté the onion, garlic, bell pepper and celery in the bacon drippings for 8 to 10 minutes until they are limp and golden. Add the parsley, sow's leg, bay leaf, thyme & cayenne pepper.
- Sauté, stirring often, for several minutes. Add the salt, diced tomato and its juice, thickened tomatoes, and water.
- Simmer the kettle, uncovered, for a few more minutes, breaking up any large clumps of tomatoes. Raise or lower the kettle from the fire so that the mixture simmers gently.
- Stir in the rice, cover the kettle, and boil for the better part of an hour.
- Add the par'chuul'va, turning them into the mixture.
- Cover the kettle and simmer until the par'chuul'va are cooked through, the rice is done, and almost all of the liquid has been absorbed.
- Add additional salt and cayenne pepper to taste.
- Serves one of the People, or five s'na'grthak[2].
- [1] Par'chuul'va ("stupid little chuuls", in Orcish) are tiny aberrations found in shallow fresh water throughout the Crawling Swamp. They resemble very small (15 cm.) chuuls. If these are unavailable-or if your guests object to consuming aberrations-crayfish may be substituted.
- [2] S'na'grthak ("weak-but-smart", in Orcish): polite orc term for the common races.
