Line a 9" pie pan with pastry dough and brush it with 1
tablespoon melted butter. Bake at 425 just until
dough begins to color (5-8 minutes). Pat half the
rice on bottom and sides of crust. Add salmon in an
even layer and sprinkle it with the nutmeg-flavored
lemon juice. Add egg slices and season to taste with
salt and pepper. Top this with remaining rice and pour
over all the 1/4 cup butter-chive mixture.

Adjust top crust; flute edges, vent crust and paint it
with Egg Glaze. Bake at 400 about 35 minutes. If
crust browns too quickly, cover top loosely with foil.
Add a light sprinkling of onion salt just before
serving and garnish with sprigs of parsley lightly
dipped in paprika.

Cut in wedge size servings and serve with a fresh
spinach salad and croissants.
