Toppingfrmbottom -> How do you like to flavor your rice, so far I have done butter an garlic an sour cream and garlic (8/19/2010 9:01:23 PM)

and mmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmm mmmmmmm is it tasty.

Next I am thinking butter and brown sugar.

And yeah I know rice aint the healthiest, an I know butter and garlic an stuff isn't either, but this thread is to be more for fun, rather than worrying about health and health admonishments.

Chicken stock with saffron and toasted black mustard seeds.

Hi, Topping,

Usually just plain rice is what i have, though sometimes butter or garlic can be good, too.

When i was younger, i think we used to put sugar on rice, too. Like Equal, but we've switched to Splenda now for that kind of sugar.

And there's a Chinese restuarant nearby that we always order their shrimp fried rice from. Veggies, and shrimp and ohmygosh, yum!

Probably not what you meant, though.

Try white wine, butter lemon and tarragon. It is outstanding. Great with fish

Cook the rice in the chicken stock and drain and then stir through the saffron and the mustard seeds.

I've tried honey, It's really good, but I find honey on anything is good.

Well, I only use brown rice for health reasons most of the time, but I like to season it with chicken stock, which I cook it in rather than water, and I love to add tons of chopped scallions, some sauteed shallots, garlic (which is very healthy) and also I like to make rice the main meal at times by adding things like sauteed shrimp with veggies to it, or sometimes I add lots of fresh tomato, chopped grilled chicken breast and basil, fresh only.





Hippiekinkster -> RE: How do you like to flavor your rice, so far I have done butter an garlic an sour cream and garlic (8/19/2010 9:21:21 PM)

A little butter, some grated carrots for color and a touch of sweet, and dried coconut.

Well, if you wanted to call cookingvegitables and rice together flavoring them, I am all for allowing that distinction.[:D]

Yes you sure can, I do. Just make it exactly the same, except substitute the water for a low sodiu chicken stock. You can also put in the other ingredients right into the cooker, or stir them in after it's cooked.




maybemaybenot -> RE: How do you like to flavor your rice, so far I have done butter an garlic an sour cream and garlic (8/19/2010 9:37:25 PM)

for about 3-4 Cups of rice < cooked >

I dice up a medium onion, diced up 1-1 1/2  stalks celery, dice up about 6 oz of baby portabellas.
Saute in small amount of olive oil.
Mix into the rice.

If you like spicy food

Mix Curry powder and Cayenne pepper, to your heat tolerance, with shredded coconut. Toast the coconut and mix into rice.

1 cup rice, uncooked
1/2 cup green onions, sliced, including tops
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, thinly sliced
1-1/2 cups chicken broth or stock
1/2 cup dry sherry
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper

Preheat oven to 375º

Butter a 7 x 11-inch baking dish and pour in uncooked rice
In a medium saucepan, sauté green onions in butter until softened. Add mushrooms and continue to sauté until mushrooms are softened. Pour in chicken broth, sherry, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, remove from heat and pour over rice in baking dish.
Cover baking dish, and bake in a 375 oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until rice is done.

Make a can of cream of mushroom or cream of chicken or cream of anything but potato I would assume. I usually use mushroom, then cook the rice in the soup... yummy as all hell.

Y'know the best way to make sure your chicken stock is low-sodium, don't you?

Make it yourself.

I'm looking at a can right now.

1 cube = 46%, so double the 1 cup of water to make 32%
Almost every can is at 40% per serving
"Less sodium" is 1/3 off that, so 24% per serving.

OOPS!  We were asked to not go to "health" issues.  Sorry.....

Make your own broth the easy way - 4 chicken breasts in crock pot.  Coarsely chop celery, carrot, onion, bell pepper, black pepper, mustard seeds, celery seed, maybe hot peppers if you like.  (Lance's secret spice - but won't "work" with hot peppers - nutmeg!)   Water to cover. Cook until mush... LOL!  Strain and freeze in ice cube trays.  Turn 'em out into freezer bags.




LanceHughes -> RE: How do you like to flavor your rice, so far I have done butter an garlic an sour cream and garlic (8/19/2010 10:18:49 PM)

Rice and red beans!

Zucchini cut in 1/2" cubes - toss into boiling water for just a minute or three.  Drain in colander and then season with www.fbtef.com vegetable seasoning.  Add to cooked rice.  Oh, wait.... nobody, and I mean nobody has zucchini this time of year.  What was I thinking?

I use a bit of allspice, which is commonly encountered in the cuisine of the Yucatan and is, in fact, native to that region of Mexico. Sometimes a bit of Canela (true cinnamon, not the Cassia often labeled as cinnamon by McCormick and the like).
