Am I the only one who used to think that yellow rice was a different type of rice? Turns out, it's just rice with turmeric. Here, I'm using brown rice instead of white for more fiber and micronutrients. Turmeric, the main feature of this side, is often regarded as one of the best spices for reducing inflammation. Other spices known for reducing inflammation are present here, like cayenne, cinnamon, black pepper, and ginger
