In most cases, when cooking rice as a side dish, we are accustomed to adding only salt.

In rare cases, housewives can add some spices to make the taste of the side dish a little brighter.

However, experienced cooks introduce certain secret ingredients, shared Yulia Arkhipova, an expert on cooking for the online publication BelNovosti.

What can you add to a pot of rice?

Soy sauce

Many have already noticed that soy sauce goes perfectly with rice: the products seem to be made for each other. Therefore, a small amount of sauce can be safely added during cooking.

In this case, the side dish will turn out spectacular and crumbly.

Lemon juice

A small amount of citrus juice will not have a negative effect on the taste of rice. However, it will be enough to prevent the grain from sticking together.

Half a small spoon will be quite enough.

Apple cider vinegar

For the same purpose, you can also add apple cider vinegar: the component will not affect the taste, but will preserve the presentable appearance of the side dish.
