How to Make I Thought I Had Nothing To Eat Rice
- Boil 2 cups of water in a saucepan. Remove from heat and add 1 tea bag (choose your favorite flavor; black tea, green tea, or herbal infusions work well).
- Let the tea steep for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse into the water.
- Add 1 cup of uncooked long-grain rice, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon basil, 1/4 teaspoon dill, and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust spices to taste) to the tea-infused water.
- Bring the mixture back to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through and the liquid is absorbed.
- Remove from heat and let the rice stand, covered, for 5 minutes.
- Fluff the rice with a fork and stir in 1 tablespoon of butter until completely melted. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
