This recipe has evolved from my mother’s easy-to-follow (and wonderfully yummy) original. This is based on the original recipe my mother sent me in college. I’ve carried the it around with me for years and, stapled to it, a recipe from my Aunt Argie. I’ve run out of room for more notes on the worn and creased original print-out from 1996 or so.<\/p>\n

As always, suggestions and other arroz recipes are welcome in the comments below.<\/p>\n
