Didn't she do this "how to **** rice" at least two other times?

I *really* doubt that. Are you still not covering your rice with a
solid lid when it cooks? You will deny saying that and then I will
prove you wrong, so don't deny it.

Julie doesn't **** the rice. Julie cooks the rice, the gardener eats the rice,
then Julie ****s the gardener.

Nobody on this planet, and I do mean nobody, but Ju-Ju can **** up cooking
rice. She probably screws up boiling water, too.

I don't think the woman ever gets tired of making a fool of herself if she thinks
it will get her the attention she so desperately craves.

She had to buy a whole bunch of powdered Parmesan cheese, too. Does
anyone think they need to have so much grated cheese or cheese blend
that they have to worry about the expiration dates? Oh, there's a
pandemic! She stocked up *before* the pandemic. She's obsessed with
buying a lot of stuff and then worrying about expiration dates.
Throwing away food is a habit.

I seriously doubt that 'powdered Parmesan cheese' aka Kraft in the green can,
has a expiration date. Even if it should have such a date she's too stupid to
realize it's just a date to protect the company if somebody gripes it has no
expiration date.

Of course it does! All food does. Most of what I have is not Kraft.

The Kraft parmesan cheese comes in a plastic jar these days not the old
cardboard 'CAN'. I have one here now and they do have an expiration
date. Mine says May 2020 but no worries. I still use it and it's fine.

I like it better than fresh because, dried, the flavor is more
concentrated than fresh. Not much extra ingredients added. It's just
stronger tasting which I like.

I prefer the fresh. But this is what I have, so this is what I'll use.

Real parmesan has much more flavor than dried. Even better,
pecorino romano has even more flavor. And you can buy it at Costco
for much less than these fake and tasteless American parmesans.

Gary mistakes "acrid and mouth-searing" for "flavorful".

Why do you always think I worry? And I NEVER said I bought the cheese prior
to the pandemic. I bought it at the start of when I couldn't get into the
grocery store. I was mail ordering it.

I've done it, but not as badly nor as frequently as Julie. The two major
culprits are turning down the heat too soon or turning it down too late.
Both are a symptom of having more things going on than I can keep track of.

I'm disinclined to tell the world when I've done something wrong. I'd rather
keep that to myself.

Perhaps Julie was trying to warn us about Blue Ribbon Rice. At any rate,
rice is so inexpensive I don't worry about buying the rock-bottom cheapest
stuff. Riceland or Mahatma for me.

I've never looked at the price of rice... rice is so cheap who cares
if a brand is 2¢ less a pound. I've been buying Goya rice in 20 pound
bags for years and years and have never noticed the price...
especially since a 20 pound bag lasts us nearly 20 years.

It's not as cheap as it used to be. I've bought a 20 pound bag of rice
twice. They were not worth the savings. I had to repackage to store it and
despite being careful, there was some spillage.

WOW! I use 5lbs up in 6-7 weeks here. Used to be more but we don't
eat as much of it as we used to.

Disagree. Confession, it is said, is good for the soul. We members of
RFC should fess up our wrongs and fee ourselves from the torture of shame.

OK, I'll start. I had a '71 Ford with whitewall tires. I was parking
it and scrapped the whitewall on the curb, marking it.

I feel better already. Relieved of the shame, my day is brighter.

I did that to my dad's 71 Buick. He was *not* happy.

When have you ever read a post from Julie that she hasn't screwed up a dish, it
doesn't taste right, it didn't cook up correctly, I don't like that, I can't eat that, that
is not available here, we had to wait in line for a year for a table, I can't get my mail?

Riceland and Mahatma works for me, too. Even the stuff from Dollar Tree cooks up
perfect every time.

If you think the Dollar Tree rice is perfect, you have low standards.

I made Mexican rice last night. It was perfect.

And where did I ever say that I had to wait for a table? I haven't dined out
in almost a year!

Smile, rice makers handle that so you can do other stuff.

It's simple. I make it very often. Enough to make sense to have one.

Years ago, I had a rice cooker. When it died, I tried doing rice in the

Of course I cover it! I did once make some sort of Greek rice with spinach
that was cooked uncovered. I only made it once. I liked it. Nobody else did.
It was a pain as it required constant stirring.
