Hi.
So I hate rice. Which is really too bad, it seems like a good idea especially brown rice, nice easy carboydrate that should go with everything. But I can only stomach once every couple weeks.
So those of you that like rice, can you tell me what's I'm doing wrong? I just follow the directions on the rice bag for cooking. Or share good tips and recipes for rice? Different types of rice to buy?
Thanks!

Get a rice cooker, use basmati or jasmine rice, use a flavorful cooking liquid or season your water with some salt of MSG0 -
Google for Rice Pilaf, rice Pulao, fried rice recipes. You'll find some easy rice preparations with veggies and different types of meat. Doesn't take long and very filling and nutritious.0

I don't really consider rice, even brown rice, to be a health food, so I say if you don't like rice, don't eat it. You could substitute another grain, like quinoa (or even couscous) to see if you like that better.
I do like rice, but I'm partial to the rice that comes out of my unfortunately expensive rice cooker.0
