White Rice🥗 Side
A simple recipe for making white rice in a rice cooker.
By Marcus Rivera, Kitchen Tips Editor
The best side dishes do not just fill space on the plate — they earn their spot. This white rice is exactly that kind of recipe: simple enough to make on a busy weeknight, flavorful enough to hold its own next to any main course, and satisfying in a way that makes you reach for seconds.
This recipe comes together quickly, but do not rush the early steps. Taking a moment to prep and organize your ingredients before you start cooking — the classic mise en place — makes the whole process smoother and more enjoyable.
This pairs well with almost any protein, from a simple roasted chicken to grilled steak or baked salmon. Make extra — it reheats well and having a ready-made side dish in the fridge makes weeknight cooking significantly easier.
