       1/4           cup  granulated sugar -- white
    1              pinch  salt

Dissolve yeast in warm water; set aside.

Scald 1 cup milk, and combine with 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup butter 
or margarine. Set aside to cool.

In a separate bowl beat eggs. Add eggs, vanilla, and pinch of salt to 
cooled milk mixture. Mix together. Add yeast mixture. Gradually add 
flour and raisins until dough comes away from the bowl. Knead the 
dough until pliable. Avoid handling the dough more than necessary! 
Place dough in a well oiled bowl. Set aside to rise until doubled in 
size in a draft free area.

Combine 2 cups cold milk, 1/4 cup sugar, and pinch of salt in a 
saucepan. Stir in rice, and bring to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon butter. 
Lower heat, cover, and cook for about 20 minutes, until done. Set 
aside to cool.

Punch down the dough, and knead a couple of times. Place into the 
center of a 9 x 14" casserole dish that has been sprayed with 
non-stick cooking spray and lightly floured. Spread dough in dish by 
patting gently to all sides. Let rise for 15 minutes.

Spread rice on top of dough, and pull sides up gently to form an 
envelope type design. Rice will show in center. Brush the top lightly 
with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon.

Place in a preheated 375F (190C) oven. Lower temperature to 350F 
(175C). Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until golden.

Makes 1 - 9 x 14" loaf

cooked in milk and sugar."
