[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rice consumption in the US has some regional bias. DH is Creole and rice is a bayou staple. I grew up in the Carolinas where we boil then toast the rice. People gravitate toward what is grown or raised in their area. My Midwestern family eats corn and wheat based carbs because that’s what’s grown there. [/quote] My DH is also Creole and says rice was the first thing he learned to cook as a child. It’s usually rice cooked from the start in a sauce though. But I grew up eating a lot of rice with beans or chicken added later because one side of my family is Afro-Cuban. I love rice and could eat a bowl with just salt, pepper, and butter. I just can’t cook it in a pot on the stove top to save my life. [/quote]
