onion is softened. Add the rice and cook it, stirring, until it is coated
with the butter. Add the broth, bring the liquid to a boil, covered, and
simmer the mixture for 17 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the
rice is tender. Stir in the pistachios, the raisins, the scallion greens,
the remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter, and salt and pepper to taste.
