Why It Works / Benefits:
Enhanced flavor: Adding broth or aromatics deeply infuses flavor into the rice.

Versatility: Works with white, brown, jasmine, or basmati rice.

No extra effort: Small changes, big results.

2 cups chicken or vegetable broth (instead of water)

1 tablespoon butter or olive oil

1 bay leaf or clove of garlic (optional)
