I love Jasmine. A couple of Brit friends raved so much about Basmati that I bought a 20 pound bag of Royal at Sam's. I messed it up first two times I made it. And you can't do con-con with it.
I think I'm sticking with the jasmine. Our maid had us laughing last trip. She cooks for us, herself, the caretaker and whoever else is on the property at the time. She came and whispered to me "This rice is not for poor people, if they eat it they will get mareo." She was joking of course, but she often scolded me for "feeding too many people".
i do not eat white rice. wild rice, yeah, con gusto. but white? no. nope. never ate rice in 7 years here. i love beans, thou, so i always have a serving of beans with my food. i just pour it all over whatever else i eat. it's grossing my mother in law to no end. for 7 years with every meal she brings me a separate bowl for beans and for 7 years i've been ignoring this suggestion. all that she achieved is that i do not want to go and eat there anymore.
and the diference is MOM made it..........big diferenceModerator please close this thread. It's heresy :cheeky::cheeky::cheeky:
Talking bad about Arroz con Guandules? Now I've seen it all. If I'm ever on death row, about to be executed and I'm offered a last meal it will be my Mom's Arroz con Guandules and Chivo picante, with a nice side of crispy ConCon of course, a Batida de Zapote, a nice ice cold Presidente and a small cup of Dominican coffee. I would die a happy man.

i'm so glad i am not the only rice enemy here. i just can't with the same stuff over and over again. how god damn boring is that?
at home we have this to satisfy occasional miesposo's rice cravings: Zojirushi
cooks white, brown and wild rice. sticky rice, sushi rice, whatever you wish. great stuff, highly recommended.
i appreciate the fact that at home we can eat something different. today i made a simple salad. few days ago it was a hunter's stew (polish dish). before that home made pizza with capers and artichoke. before that chicken breasts stuffed with ham and sun dried tomato.
The absolutely worst rice for me is when they throw in a can of corn. Never liked corn never will. The way it goes in is the way it comes out. Whats the point of that. I have worked in sewers so I know
just a fact sir....just a factthat's a little too much information there, rojerjac...
