  • Notes:

    To minimize any loss of water through evaporation, cover the sauce pan and use the water as soon as it reaches a boil. An 8-inch ceramic baking dish with a lid may be used instead of the baking dish and foil. To double the recipe, use a 13x9-inch baking pan; the baking time need not be increased.
