    Cooking with rice. I was never big on rice, so never had particular ambitions for experimenting with it.
    Then I found a rice variety in the shops, which actually tastes nice on its own, and also you’re allowed to just dump it into a pot of water, then drain the remaining water, which I much prefer for experimenting.

    And yeah, that has led to me catching up with experimenting very quickly. Last week I made basically a risotto using:

    • rice
    • red lentils
    • vegetable broth
    • coconut milk
    • bell peppers
    • caraway
    • teriyaki sauce
    • sriracha sauce

    …and last, but definitely not least, orange slices.

    And it tasted fucking rad. That’s my favorite feature of rice. You can throw in the wildest ingredients and it magically makes them work together.
