Perfect Rice
Cook perfect rice every time with this South Louisiana method.
Rice seems like such a simple recipe. And, you might be thinking why would I take the time to share a recipe when it’s right on the package. Have you ever had your rice come out gummy or with hard kernals? If so, you’ll understand that there is a right and a wrong way to cook rice. A friend and colleague shared this method for making perfect rice, and it is very different from the package instructions.
Hint: My Perfect Rice recipe can be doubled , but that does not change the cooking time. Use this recipe when making rice to go with my Chicken and Sausage Gumbo.
I hope you enjoy all my recipes.
