Simple White Rice Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Chinese settlers first brought rice to the caribbean islands in the early 1900s. It went well with just about every indigenous food; now white rice (known as arroz blanco) is a popular side dish with latin caribbean meals. Jamaican cuisine alone boasts more than 400 rice recipes. It's often an important component of other regional recipes as well. If you're looking for a rice dish that won't overshadow your main course, simple plain white rice hits the spot and it's easy to make. This recipe uses long grain rice.
