An ingredient guide

  1. Identify the form

    Start with the exact form of Rice you have: whole, milled, dried, fresh or otherwise processed. These forms are not interchangeable in a recipe.

  2. Choose its job

    Decide whether it supplies structure, starch, flavor or texture. Use a recipe written for that ingredient and form before experimenting with substitutions.

  3. Make one change at a time

    Start with a small batch and keep notes on quantities, handling and the finished result. Follow the preparation directions for your exact product.

A more detailed origin history is still being researched.
