I’ve always believed that rice is the heart of a great meal—whether it’s the fluffy base of a stir-fry, the star of a comforting bowl of paella, or the perfect side to a juicy steak.

Here, I share the dishes that have shaped my table, along with new ideas I’m eager to try. Think of this as an invitation to cook with me, one grain at a time.
