Rice is an incredibly versatile grain that is used in many different types of cuisine. One popular way of using rice is to prepare it in a jar. This method of cooking rice is quick, easy, and customizable. With four different versions, each using different spices to add more complex flavors, there is a version for every palette. Additionally, rice in a jar lasts a long time, making it great for meal prep. However, this method of cooking rice requires a bit of preparation in advance to allow time for the rice to cook. Furthermore, this method of cooking rice is not ideal for preparing rice for sushi or risotto. Nonetheless, rice is gluten-free, low in fat, and sodium-free, and has no cholesterol.
