I grew up in South America and the Caribbean, where long-grain rice is not a staple and rarely used. I grew up with medium-grain rice, which Americans do not normally eat, so I was overjoyed when, in a Florida supermarket, I found this pearl-rice, which is ideal for the kinds of rice recipes I usually cook (including plain white). Cooked two-to-one (water to rice), it comes out softer, less chewy, clean tasting. I stocked on it for my vacation and I am taking it back to New York with me, for I cannot find it there either. Thank God for Internet shopping!
