The Best Rice Mixes

Best Thai Rice Mix

A Taste of Thai Yellow Curry Rice
 
The hands-down favorite of all the mixes sampled, this product was lavishly praised for its powerful heat and complex seasonings. “Unexpectedly bold,” raved a taster. “It has a great curry flavor that gives you quite a kick at the end.” Agreed another: “It’s rich, a little bit smoky, and spicy. I would serve it with beef or lamb―something saucy.”
 
A close second in popularity was Thai Kitchen’s Lemongrass and Ginger ($2.70 for 7 ounces), which was gobbled up by testers who lauded its rich aroma and layering of lemongrass and coconut flavors.
 
 To buy: $5 for 7 ounces.
 
 Serve it with:
 

• Coconut Chicken
• Chili-Roasted Cod
• Steak With Root Vegetables
