I made this as-is, using a homemade blend of 'hdp'. I agree a dab of butter is a nice addition, unless you do what I did which was combining this with the final result of "Spinach Saute" (from AR)that made the ultimate side dish for fish, or even an herb-y/lemon-y chicken.

I made this tonight and it is now my favorite rice recipe. My teen and husband loved it as well. We all ate seconds.

Wonderfully easy in the rice maker. I used another reviewers suggestion of 1/2 tesp of sage, basil, marjoram and thyme. Also put in a pat of butter. Definitely a keeper.

okay but Herbes de Provence is even better on small, white potatoes sauteed a bit in butter and the seasoning.

Good spice match with the main dish I made. Only serious flaw is lack of salt. Otherwise good.

I was looking for some way to make rice that was more flavorful than the plain white rice I always make. My hubby loves rice and will eat it with every meal but I'm not so sold on it. This recipe changed that! I made this and really liked it. The only change I made was I added about a tablespoonful of butter. I put everything in my rice cooker as I normally do and it was excellent. I'll be making this one often. Thanks, Jennifer, for a really good recipe.

Good side dish. For those that don't have Herbes De Prevence there are several web sites that give a list of common ingredients that can be used to make your own.

An easy, elegeant, flavorful twist on rice. I loved the touch that the fresh herbs added to simple white rice. This is a no fail recipe if followed to a "T." There is no adjustments needed or adding to this rice dish. It's good as is. The preparation time is approximate, cooking time is exact using 1 cup rice and 2 cup chicken stock ratio. sometimes I just put everything in the rice cooker and let it cook until done (20 mins). I served this with "roast chicken with rosemary", and herbed mushroom in white wine," also on this website. Was a perfect compliment to each other. this rice dish is a keeper in my recipe box.
