    I use some of this:

    Then I add spices appropriate to whatever it's being served with, usually herbes de provence or garam masala, sometimes some finely chopped onions, garlic and shredded carrot. If I'm going with garam masala, sometimes I add lentils. If I'm using herbes de provence, I sometimes add wild rice.

    But my favorite rice is mekong flower brown rice, and it needs nothing but a bit of salt, as it already has a very sweet, nutty flavor, kind of like jasmine rice.

    I cook in chicken stock or chicken bullion and season with McCormick Salad Supreme. Gotta watch the sodium but salad supreme has a lot of great flavors that go well with rice. Also, a simple dash of cajun and/or chili powder is good depending on what type of dish you're making.

    If I'm not using it in a recipe or making a pilaf or something, I generally just use stock instead of water. I usually have some homemade stock in the freezer, but store bought works just as well.
