CLASSIC RICE SALAD how to make it perfect, a tasty, fresh, and summery first course suitable all year round, rich in vegetables, eggs, and tuna.
The classic rice salad is the summer dish par excellence but is good all year round; it’s a simple and tasty dish, rich in vegetables and eggs, enriched with mayonnaise and other ingredients.
The main ingredient of the classic rice salad is, of course, rice, and the first mistake to avoid is using any rice; you need to choose the one specifically for salads, whose grains do not swell during cooking and do not stick together.
Perfect is Venus rice or red rice and basmati, also excellent is whole grain, some use Parboiled or Carnaroli; varying the seasoning as you like will make the salad even more appetizing.
Parboiled is perfect for those in a hurry; it cooks in a few minutes and the grains stay separate.
