        I dunno man

        I’m in a thread where potatoes are praised for their versatility

        someone says rice is too

        and then it’s all just rice with something added to it

          I mean, you have to add to potatoes too if you want to get real flavor out of them. That versatility means little without salt and pepper. Frying can help but you can fry rice too.

          Sake is fermented rice wine, as smooth as a good vodka in my opinion.

          One of my favorite rice based dishes is a rice and coconut pancake from south India called appam. Paired with the right curry it’s the perfect balance of savory with just a touch of sweetness.

          Staples are staples for a reason. They’re all incredibly versatile.
