a lot of people here complain about the vinegar in the recipe, but i enjoy it. i didn't have any white wine vinegar, so i substituted apple cider vinegar. my idea is that the taste is very subjective, because when my mother tasted the salad, she complained about the vinegar (she ate a bowl of it anyway!. for ease, i diced the bacon before frying it very slowly in the pan, and i also allowed the vinegar to reduce in the pan for a minute before adding the remaining ingredients. instead of dill, i stirred minced scallion in at the very end. i enjoy this salad warm, because it reminds me of a spinach salad with warm bacon dressing.

This is a great way to change-up rice. Brown rice is very nutty and very chewy. This recipe is wonderful, however I recommend you cut back on the amount of vinegar.

The dill is just overpowering. I think I will try it again using a more subtle herb.

Like many other reviewers here, I found 4oz of vinegar to be far too much. 2oz is plenty, and a bit less would probably work, too.
Other than that, outstanding!

Thanks Alton for another awesome recipe. I can now eat healthy junk like brown rice and actually enjoy the taste because it's disguised with bacon and dill.

This is a great side dish warm or cold. We thought the vinegar was not overpowering. If you want a little more crunch stir in some steamed broccoli and water chestnuts.

We liked this, but found we needed to reduce the vinegar (and up the other liquids to compensate.

Thanks to the baking of the rice, I will never again have sticky rice. The rice was perfectly fluffy!

I liked this dish, but just as a few other reviewers noted, I would cut the vinegar in half. Even though I love vinegar, it is just a little too much for this dish.
