How often and how frequently do you think most people eat rice?
I'm just curious, do you eat it frequently or occasionally? |
| Depends. In some cultures, rice is a daily food. We eat rice 1-3 times a week. |
| Asian here - 3-5 times per week |
|
Daily food. Make basmati only. Wash rice three times before cooking. Then make it like pasta and drain out the water. It is healthier like this.
Eat with dal, veggies, meat. |
| We eat a lot of rice, usually white, wash it extremely well but we do cook using absorption method. Latino/Middle eastern family so rice is a staple. |
| 3 times a week |
| Not from an Asian culture but we're in the ~3+ times a week. All kinds: white, jasmine, basmati. Then there's the rice sticks, noodles, and cakes. Family loves it all. |
| At least once a week. |
Same. |
How does the rice differ when cooked this way? |
|
One or two times a week.
We have some sort of carb with dinner basically every night, but it rotates between rice, potatoes, bread, pasta, and occasionally sweet potatoes or squash. When we do have rice, it might be basmati, arborio, Spanish rice, sushi rice (love poke bowls for an easy dinner), rice pilaf, or some sort of biryani or pulau. Plain basmati is the most frequent, maybe one every week or two. The others mix in when I feel like we just had rice a few days ago. |

Occasionally. If I’m making a curry or a stir fry I’ll make rice. Sometimes I make Arabic rice with the fried vermicelli in it. I would say once per week we have rice.
I grew up in Midwest and we almost never made rice. Except for when my mom made rice a roni. |
| Very sparingly. Maybe 2 dozen times in a year. |
I must be doing poke bowls wrong - it's always such a pain in the a$$, chopping all the veg, making all the different components. How are you doing poke bowls? |
| Every single day. I’m Indian. |
