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.
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.
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.
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.
