I like it. I'm not about to keel over if I don't get some every day, but I use it in our meals.

I will add some powdered chicken or beef broth to get the flavor steered in the right direction, and then add onion, diced veggies, soy, cinnamon, ginger, etc. depending on the flavor profile I seek, typically Asian or Mexican.

The thing about rice (and corn, too) - especially important in vegetarian diets if you are into that type of stuff, is that rice and corn are complementary with beans and legumes to provide complete essential protein.

The human body needs 20 amino acids- in total- to manufacture protein molecules. Our body can manufacture 11 of the 20 all by itself, so we don’t need to worry about getting them from our diet. These are called nonessential amino acids. The other nine — the so-called essential amino acids — we must get through food, preferably, or through careful supplementation.

Anyway, the bean/lentil (also called pulses) food choices provide one group of amino acids, yet are deficient of methionine and some other AA's. Grains- and botanic grasses usually considered "grains" (such as oats)- supply the missing or deficient "essential" amino acids. With all essential aminos- plus the aminos which the body can synthesize- the body is now able to create protein for body strength, growth, and tissue repair.

So, the next time you go to a church picnic and see the infamous Black Bean and Corn Salad, eat up and be thankful that someone made a dish with complete amino acids/ complete protein!

Steamed only. No fried rice for me. I like it with flavorful foods as it pretty much has no taste and lets the flavors come out.

I like it any way, plain and fried. I would even love my grandma's sticky rice bowl for lunch! Rice is basically my life. We eat it on a regular basis here in East India. You'll find paddy fields more here compared to anything else. I can't imagine not eating rice for more than 4 days. I even love chewy rice cakes.

AyaMya · Answer

Love rice! It's a regular staple food in my home. You can do practically anything with it. I enjoy it plain, egg fried, seasoned up with some meat and veggies, with curry, risotto, tagine, or even sticky and sweet as a dessert. There's so many varieties and recipie options!

What's not to like really? 😋

Potteplante · Answer

They're alright. Usually in addition to a dish. But my favourite is warm rice pudding with butter and cinnamon sugar & the left over for cold rice pudding with almonds during the Christmas season.

NamerOfStars · Answer

No, not really. Poverty's forced me to eat way, WAY too much of the stuff to ever really enjoy it; my threshold for when I've achieved success in life is "Never having to eat rice again".

Mind you, that's not the same as "never eating rice again"; there ARE things it pairs well with. I'm just sick of it in a deep and prolonged way.

FreyaRed · Answer

Milk Rice with sweet cream, cinnamon and applesauce. Otherwise I don't eat rice.

purplepoppy · Answer

It's good with curry or as a paella but that's about it

JustinTheGreat · Answer

Yes I like it. I’ve actually been eating it a lot more lately cause I bought a huge bag of it.
I don’t mind plain white rice but I usually have to put some kind of sauce on it.
Other than that I like Chinese fried rice, Spanish style orange rice, rice and beans, and pretty much any other way lol

I hate rice. I'm an Asian (Indian to be exact) and rice just bugs me. All my life my family constantly pushed me to eat rice which made me hate it even more.
