Peanut Butter Jelly Time, redux
So I have rice. I have about 5 kilos of rice on my floor by the rice cooker.
However! I have not a single slice of bread. Goes bad too quickly, you know?
But, I have peanut butter. Source of protein!
That is, in fact, peanut butter and jelly rice.

What happened? Well, as it would turn out, peanut butter works pretty decently as butter.

That reminds me of when we tried the chocolate chips with rice.
You could also use rice as a base with some cheese and meat or something to make pizza rice.
I wonder if you rice would be good as a chupaqueso filling or sprinkled in with the shell cheese and then a bit in the middle. Taking about this is making my mouth water for something with cilantro in it such as a chupaqueso or Uber Salsa...
Aside from looking like something an alien chewed up and regurgitated, I'd bet it's fairly good. Hmm, might have to try that one.
I don't think the peanut butter would make a good base for much of anything involving meat or cheese. I mean, imagine making a peanut butter and salami sandwich.
By the way, you can't buy cilantro in Japan.
It was pretty good. Even it terms of healthy-ishness, it wasn't that bad. I mean, peanut butter has good amounts of protein and fat, and the rice has plenty of protein and carbs.
Yes, using the peanut butter as a base would be disturbing...although if it exists and it is even remotely possibly to put it with peanut butter, I imagine my dad has done it. He is the king of really weird peanut butter and ??? combinations.
Rice, however, does make a fine base.
No cilantro? Bummer, that!
The peanut butter rice, while looking strange, actually did sound quite edible. Rice is nice with sweet-ish stuffs. :)
So how did it taste? Ex-boyfriend #2 used to mix his rice with pancake syrup. It was actually quite good. You could probably mix some raisins in with it too.
Also, how do you store rice? Do you make a fresh batch everyday? It never works well for me when I refrigerate it. It dries out and ends up inedible.
It was pretty decent in terms of taste. It's not the best thing I've had by any stretch of the imagination, but it was definitely edible.
I don't think I could find any decent syrup here, but I'll keep an eye out for it.
I make a fresh batch whenever I run out of cooked rice, which is every day or three, depending on how often I eat out.
If you really want to store rice, put in a Ziploc bag, making sure to keep very little air in it.
