Here are some things you need to know about rice meals:
Rice can be easily stored
Rice stores well without requiring costly refrigeration or freezer space. It can be kept in a cool place, milled rice lasts indefinitely, and brown rice lasts for several months, even longer when refrigerated. So, if you want to store your Sengkang chicken rice, there's no need to worry too. You can always reheat it.
Rice travels well
For to-go items, rice is the ideal foundation. Rice is a low-cost ingredient that provides great plate coverage. High-cost proteins can be reduced when rice takes centre stage. Think jambalaya, paella, risotto, fried rice, chicken rice—all potentially low-cost, high-margin dishes.
Rice has a lot of variation
It accommodates all the ethnic flavours that customers love today—from Thai, Indian, Singaporean, Brazilian, Salvadoran, Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Spanish, Turkish cuisines and beyond. If you enjoy Century Square chicken rice, rice meals from different parts of the globe can surprise you too!
Rice can always be recooked
Rice revitalizes leftovers. Vegetables and cooked proteins that might otherwise have no future can combine with rice in tasty stir-fries and pilafs. Also, rice is available in blends and seasoned mixes, yet another way to add interest and create a shortcut to the final dish.
