1923 Ohio Spanish Rice Recipe - Old Cookbook ShowSPANISH RICE VEGETABLES1 large tablespoonful of lard, ( lard and butter), do not brown; 1 large onion, chopped, cook until clear, do not brown; 1 cup of uncooked rice, cook until looks clear, then add 1 quart of cooked tomatoes, add salt and sugar, cook until rice is well done, season with Gebhart's Eagle Brand chili powder, no doubt other brands just as good.Can use achopped bell pepper instead of chili powder. Have always used uncooked rice, cooked rice is successful and does not take so long to make.-Mrs. F. R. Hall.I did a lot of research about the history of 'Spanish Rice'... the origins are murky to say the least, with a lot (and I mean A LOT) or 'true fact' origin stories. Many of theses stories claim it was invented in the 1940s in Mexico by Ignacio Anaya at his restaurant - the stories are all similar but OBVIOUSLY wrong since this recipe pre-dates it by at least 20 years.This summer (June 2023) I'm flying in a 2,086nm fundraiser for Hope Air, an organisation that helps lower income Canadians or those who live in remote areas access healthcare by providing flights (through private pilots and airlines) to larger urban centres.
