Not all housewives think about the fact that they need to add any additional ingredients to a pot of rice.

We are accustomed to the fact that cereals do not need any additives, except for salt.

But experienced cooks are unlikely to agree with this statement, since very simple ingredients can significantly improve the quality of the side dish, making it dazzlingly white, crumbly and tasty.

What can you add to a pot when cooking rice?

Vinegar

It is thanks to this component that the rice will look as if it was cooked by professionals. Thanks to vinegar, the side dish turns out dazzlingly white.

It is enough to add one small spoon of the product into the pan at the moment when the liquid begins to boil.

Soy sauce

Rice itself is incredibly popular in Asian cuisine, so it is often cooked in combination with soy sauce. This side dish turns out to be impeccable.

First, the rice is combined with a small amount of soy sauce (no more than 50 ml per 150 grams of cereal), fried for several minutes, and then water is added.

Green tea

If you throw in a couple of green tea bags while cooking rice, the rice will turn out amazingly tasty and incredibly crumbly.
