You love rice and need some inspiration to get cooking? This cook book covers the most popular rice dishes using a variety of grains and techniques along with some extra treats. When cooked correctly, rice on it's own can be delicious. Add good rice to your favourite main meal and it instantly becomes more interesting. This book is about making great, simple and tasty food with the help from a rice cooker but the recipes can be made using normal everyday tools in a kitchen such as pots and pans. We would, however, advise that to get the best from your rice and the recipes in this book, having a good rice cooker would be helpful. We take you on a journey through a world of flavours from Indian dals to spicy, sweet and savoury Thai dishes to Chinese favourites and the sushi shores of Japan. We explore Mexican and Brazilian dishes, some European favourites, Middle Eastern delights and everything in between. Along the way we give guidance, tips, tricks and information on how to pair dishes with rice, how to elevate rice to a higher level and explain how rice should be eaten! We include recipes for interesting desserts you can make in a rice cooker, yes desserts! Whilst rice cookers are very good at cooking rice (surprise!)the way that they operate means that they are also good at cooking specific key dishes that are more than just rice. We show how these can give variety to your cookery skills. Finally, we give interesting facts about rice, rice cookers, grain guides and other useful information to help you on your journey to a healthier way to eat!
