Ikura Rice Bowl (Golden Pearl Trout Caviar)

This is my favorite way to eat rice; covered with Ikura (aka Pearl Trout Roe). Especially when it’s executed correctly, this dish results in beautiful alchemy of warm, fragrant rice; slightly chewy in texture, and perfectly seasoned with rice vinegar that is subtle sweet yet still savory; paired with the alluring saline, umami, and earthy flavors of delectable trout caviar. The addition of 24k gold makes this dish a little extra fancy, if you are trying to impress a guest. However, it's optional. *Disclaimer: this is not a traditional recipe.* Recipe li

Notes:

--This is “Feel Good” Fried Rice--In this recipe, I’ve laced this dish with oxytocin-inducing ingredients that help set you in a good mood. Specifically, it is a “feel-good” chemical that promotes bonding and connection in the brain. for that special someone. The best part is that it tastes amazing. Oxytocin ingredients in this dish: lobster, oyster, fish, shrimp, peanut, lemongrass 


--RightRice Facts--Considering my sensitivity to #highglycemic foods, I substitute RightRice for white rice. Why? RightRice has 10g of complete protein and 5g fiber per serving, RightRice delivers twice the amount of protein, five times the fiber, and almost 40 percent fewer net carbs than traditional white rice.
