I'm one of those people who really just.... don't find much worth in eating plain long grain white rice. It's the most bland and nutrient deprived, diabetes breeding food, imo. Its brown version isn't that great either. I've recently gotten outside of the box, and have been trying different varieties like jasmine and basamati. Of the white rice varieties, jasmine is probably my fav.
A couple weeks ago I got some BROWN jasmine rice to cook, and prepared it with a nut brown ale (beer) and some salt and coconut oil. I seriously never thought rice could have so much good flavor to it! And it's not chewy or anything. It's soft, delicious, good for you, and doesn't make my blood sugar spike like Mt. Everest. I was truly surprised how good it tasted, lol. I've been wanting to try a variety thats said to be similar, called red jasmine or red cargo rice.
So, what are your fav varieties of rice? Know any more exotic types?
