1/2 cup rice
4 quarts rapidly boiling water
1 1/2 tablespoons salt
4 tablespoons butter
2 lbs thinly sliced yellow onions (6-7 cups)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

Drop the rice into 4 quarts of boiling salted water and boil for 5 minutes exactly. Drain immediately.
3
Add the 4 Tbsp of butter to a 3-quart, fireproof casserole and place in the oven.
