Usually I would add salt. Can't really do anything with pasta, but there's nothing wrong with adding salt to rice after it's cooked.

Yes. Potniggers will say otherwise, but rice cookers are extremely useful. It saves room on your stove for preparing other parts of the meal, it doesn't have to be babysat or even thought about once you've pressed the button, and it holds your rice at a safe temperature until you're ready for your meal.

>> No.14923002

>>14922970
Pretty much this. It's hard to think of a meal that soy wouldn't blend okay with and you get the most even flavor, but as a back-up I might suggest some powdered chicken bouillon sprinkled over it and then stirred in.

Sprinkle gomashio or furikake. Or just eat it without salt and add sesame seeds is good too. Or maybe make it into tamago gohan.

Plain rice is meant to soak up juices from meat, sauces, etc. It's perfect for this on its own, you don't need extra salt.
If you're eating rice on its own then you'll also want to add boullion, garlic, butter, herbs, go wild. Adding just salt to plain white rice really doesn't do much

No. Buy a steamer basket, and get some banana leaves. Soak rice in room temperature water for a few hours before cooking. Drain, wrap in leaves and then steam.

>> No.14925318

I have one of those and it would be too much of a pain in the ass to do all that dumb shit. I also live in a middle of nowhere so getting banana leaves is not even a possibility

>people actually falling for the salting rice meme

makes me realize just how few people that actually cook still remain on this board

every dumbass telling you salt rice has a megafucked palette due to a desensitized tongue, and most likely hypertension.

save the salt for the actual dishes to service with the rice, not the rice itself

adding salt after the fact is acceptable just isn’t the same. serving completely unsalted rice with any reasonably salted meal doesn’t negate the complete lack of seasoning in the rice. these are the only correct answers
