PREPARATION: Bring the stock to a boil with the green onion and pepper. Add  
the rice; turn down to a simmer and cover; cook for 20 minutes.  
NOTE: If you want drier rice, remove the cover at 20 minutes and heat just a  
minute or so longer.  
VARIATIONS: Rice made with fish stock can be served  
with fish, beef-stock rich with beef. If you begin adding more vegetables,  
you will end up with a jambalaya instead of a side course of Country Rice.
