I never met a rice I didn't like--at least not that I remember.  Maybe instant?

 

I love brown, white, Basmati, long or short grain, paella rice, sweet rice, and on and on!  Right now I am loving Gaba brown rice, which the rice cooker soaks and then cooks and it is supposed to release nutrients.  I don't know but the texture is great.

 

My favorite brand is Lundberg because they have really good organic rice.  I also have some yellow rice mixes on hand too.  And we keep converted rice for quick meals.

 

I have a package of black rice but haven't tried it yet.

I eat less rice than I once did, but when I do have it, I love jasmine rice.

Jasmine Brown and find it best cooked an hour before serving.

I usually by the frozen brown and the frozen Jasmine from Trader Joes.  I also really like the yellow rice that comes in the golden yellow pouches.  I can't think of the brand but it has the safron and other spices.  

 

I also really like the convenience of the microwaveable packets.  When I worked in the office, they were easy to keep in my desk for days I didn't bring & couldn't get away for lunch.

Re: What Rice is Your Favorite?

I use Calrose, which is similar to the rice I used in Japan. I always make it "sticky style." I make fried rice and Mexican rice with it. I rarely use another kind, and I NEVER use instant. 

 

I have a Panasonic rice cooker I bought there and had it wired for US electric current when I got back. They have so many now that are more sophisticated, but I won't part with it. It even has a poached egg cooker insert!   Smiley Happy
