54. Tips for Perfect Yellow Rice
55. -------------------------------
57. * Use short-grain rice for the best results. Long-grain rice will absorb too much liquid and become mushy.
58. * Don't stir the rice too often while it's cooking. This can cause the rice to become sticky.
59. * If you don't have chicken broth, you can use water with a pinch of salt.
60. * You can add other ingredients to the yellow rice, such as diced tomatoes, peas, or carrots, to make it more flavorful and nutritious.
61. * Store leftover yellow rice in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat it in the microwave or on the stove before serving.
