Pretty good spice for rice.
Put a little mushrooms on them too.
Add some onion.

I must be the only person in the world who eats plain rice. I
wouldn't
even salt it if my husband would eat it that way.

lol, you and a billion others eat plain rice.

Ordinary white rice, steamed or boiled, doesn't need salt. I think
it's an American thing to add salt. -aem

I eat rice plain all the time. It's a side dish. No need to gussy it
up. I prefer to salt the water though....

Several kinds. Plain old long-grain white. Basmati.
Jasmine. Calrose. Long-grain brown.

Usually eaten from a small bowl rather than on the plate
with the rest of the meal.

I love plain rice, but I also like it just about any other way.

A lot of people around the world eat plain rice. What goes with it is
seasoned; the rice doesn't need to be. When cooked plain, leftovers work
equally well for fried rice as for rice puddings.

Ok, leftovers for fried rice is a given.... leftover *what* for rice
pudding??? I can't imagine meat or vegetables in it.

Leftover rice. What else were we discussing Since the rice isn't
salted, it's usable for rice puddings.
Although the idea of a savoury rice pudding isn't a bad one...think
modifed risotto. Short-grained rices are called 'pudding rice' in the UK
(maybe other places as well) unless given a specific name such as
Arborio.

OK, I wasn't following. I never think of the rice as leftover, though
technically it is.

My mother would smack us too. I think she liked it.
