Rice

Rice is a staple food in many cultures, so it's no surprise that there are so many recipes that include this grain. Rice has been around for centuries and has been used in everything from soups to desserts.

One of the earliest recorded rice recipes is from China and is for a dish called congee. This dish is made by boiling rice in water until it is soft and then adding meats and vegetables. Congee is still eaten today and is often considered a comfort food.

Rice pudding is another popular dish that can be traced back to ancient times. The basic recipe for rice pudding includes cooked rice, milk, and sugar. This dish can be flavored in many different ways, such as with cinnamon, nutmeg, or fruit.
