How to make plain white rice less boring? [closed]
I'm a college student. I'm poor. Rice is cheap. Therefore, I eat a lot of plain white rice (medium grain).
I was wondering if there are any specifically tasty seasonings I could pick up that would make plain white rice a lot less boring.
Can anyone offer suggestions? I'm currently using Chef Paul Prudhomme's Magic brand seasonings, and they're great, but I would like to make my own seasoning. Is there anything else in particular that tastes great on white rice (preferably something I could make myself from simple ingredients)?

How do you make white rice less boring?
Cook the rice with chicken or vegetable broth. I sometimes find that using 100% chicken broth can make the rice feel gummy or overly-starchy \u2014 personally, I usually go for a 50/50 mix of broth and water. This adds a layer of flavor and richness without going overboard.What to add to rice to make it less bland?
If it still tastes bland add a pinch or two of salt, mix, then taste again. Try switching up your salt source and give bouillon flakes, spice packets, soy sauce, or miso a try. Keep adding seasonings and tasting until you're satisfied with the flavor.How can I make plain rice more interesting?
