Do you make turmeric rice? Have you tried other kinds of rice that you put in flavorings before it is cooked? Japanese people like their rice to be plain, but I learned from some Indian colleagues that they like to put turmeric in their rice, and that turmeric is good against dementia! I also learned after researching a little that it is also anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial. Anyway, I like turmeric rice very much and the other teachers often comment about my yellow rice.
I have not tried making it, but I have had rice cooked in coconut milk with another kind of seed (maybe coriander? I am not up on my spices). I would like to try making that some time too.

i haven't tried that, but if it had benefits, it's worth giving a try. we usually add parsley and carrot.

Parsley is a new one for me, but I sometimes add carrot and onion.

Here it is called yellow rice. Namely rice cooked with turmeric, coconut milk and other special seasonings. I really like it.

We sometimes sprinkle turmeric on our boiled rice but that's about it.
