Talk to me about rice- the magic of it, the wholeness of it, the surprising sweetness that blooms on your tongue in a slow, lingering mouthful, the flavors that vary between different grains. Talk to me about congee and biryani and onigiri and fan tuan and zhong zi and the crisped scrapings from the bottom of the pot that you can eat with peanut sugar or pour tea over to loosen the grains. Talk to me about mochi and guo ba and the addictive nature of rice crackers. Talk to me about rice.

♥ RIGHT BACK ATCHA, DUMPLING! This was a fantastic idea, all of these gorgeous ricey comments to read.

Also, the dishes I chose to describe require some skill at preparing, but to be honest sometimes I just want to eat leftover rice hot with butter and sliced-up hotdog in it, lol!
