This is my second attempt with cooking basmati rice. The first attempt was making rice pudding, which aside from the bits that burned to the bottom of the pot and the fact that the rice never really cooked all the way through, it was fairly tasty.
Tonight I decided to make some rice tonight. That expanded into cooking up some chicken and corn to go with it. The chicken came out so great! I basically defrosted a few breast tenderloins and wrapped them into tin foil with olive oil and spices. The corn was from a can; just don't ask.
The rice tastes like cardboard. I thought this stuff was supposed to be aromatic and flavorful all by itself! It dry and has a negative salt taste. I kept adding salt and nothing. I added a little bit of garlic and I am sad to say that I can't even taste that.
Thank goodness I made tasty moist chicken and corn to go with it, because on it's own this rice is just not edible. The bag does say high dietary fiber, but jeeze that was just blah.
