I made this tonight and OMG!!!! I had no idea white rice could be SO good. I followed your instructions & this is the first time my rice has come out perfectly! I made this with your black bean recipe & farofa recipe and everything was amazing! Thank you so much for sharing your recipes. I will rate each one separately. Oh, also made the Refagoda...where has this been all my life??? Next I will be trying the chicken and creamed corn recipe.
I can't wait! Obrigada!!!
This is the only way to make perfect rice! Great recipe, thank you!!
É uma receita legal, daí agradeço.
First time I made this I made the shameful error of using too much oil, second time I nailed it and this is how I am going to always do my rice now. You have yourself a new fan!
Thank you for your help, Aline. I just might decide to make a Brazilian feijoada as our main dish. I've never made it before. Wish me luck! Oh I wonder if by any chance you have a secret recipe for this amazing Brazilian dish? Let me quick do a search!!
I love the recipe. I have made it a couple of times already and it has come out great. I have a question. I am planning to help cook a community dinner for up to 100 people later this year and would love to include this rice. How long can I hold this rice after cooking it? When we cook for a crowd we usually try to cook the rice at least 1/2 hour ahead of time and keep it in a warmer or on the stovetop until service. Muito obrigado por ayudarme!
We make this rice every week and pair it with most everything! It's SO GOOD and so so so easy to make.
I'm one of those people who has been making rice the same way for decades. But, tonight I tried your recipe and can't believe how much better plain old rice can be. This is how I make rice now! Thank you!
