	Easy Persian Rice in a Rice Cooker by John Spottiswood Admittedly, this doesn't capture the crunch outside of the normal method of making persian rice.

	Bavarian Semmelknoedel/Bread Dumplings by Foodiewife This is a very traditional bread dumpling that is served in restaurants in Austria and Bavaria.
