Do you use something other than water to cook your rice?

Answer 1

Chicken broth

Answer 2

Sometimes a little mock chicken or vegetable broth. Gives the rice a nice flavor. For a tomatoey taste, some "watered down" tomato juice or soup might be good. I like the question.

Answer 3

I use water but I do not use boiling water.
I use a rice cooker. Which is self timing.
I use Brown Wheat rice.
I use a natural soy (Bragg) sauce afterward, then sprinkle with roasted sesame seeds.
Eat with chop sticks and yummy...

I have tried with the soy during the cooking and to me it is so so.. I prefer putting on afterwords.

I have also tried raw carrots cooking with the rice and that works fine.

I have enjoyed mushroom soup and rice but I do not like the grease that comes with the dead chicken, not to mention the steroids put in with the feed as the chicken spends its entire life in a cage.

Thanks for the question, it has reminded me to be creative with my rice cooker.

awaken now..
