Helluva posted:Is there anything special about black rice? What spices would go with it? i don't think it's that different from other rice. the main appeal is the color which is caused by chemicals which some people think are good for you. i just like dark purple or red food. looks tasty.

i think it tends to be more expensive because the yields are smaller than usual. so the big shots get the black rice. not such a problem when you can just buy it in a whole foods though.

PurpleXVI posted:...I mean, okay, theoretically, let's say a rice weevil gets into my rice, and I boil it along with the rice, and eat it without noticing. Is that just going to be a real gross thing if I DO notice or are they potentially dangerous in some way to eat? overnight rice can get you too.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ujTYLV2Qo4 but no, weevils aren't poisonous. though if you have guests over they may not be happy to find bugs in their rice. anyway you'd not just be eating the weevils. you're also eating their poo poo. and any other debris they may leave lying around, like weevil sized candy bar wrappers.

Hyperlynx posted:Hm. I've just been keeping my rice in the sack. Maybe time to upgrade to a sack-sized hard plastic container... bugs are good at hitching rides to places they want to be. also if you're unlucky they might already be in your food when you buy it. put it in the freezer and then put it into the plastic tub.

MadFriarAvelyn posted:All of this talk about pests in rice got me to panic and throw the bag of golden sella I bought in some glass jars and chuck em in the freezer. my understanding is you don't have to leave it in the freezer. you cool it down for a while to kill any live ones and any eggs that might be inside, then you put it into a container outside the freezer. then it will be happy sitting on your pantry shelf with only the ghosts of weevils to haunt you.

i initially thought they had created a new rice variety with substantial protein in it and then i see they just took rice and pumped pulverized cow into it. mmhmmmm

Organza Quiz posted:Two days seems super paranoid to me especially since it gets heated up again before eating it. I usually don't go longer than a week but I wouldn't be too worried about it. the bug i'm thinking of is bacillus cereus and it doesn't really care if you reheat it. just don't let your rice sit at room temp and it probably won't get you though.
