Wehani Rice With Garden Vegetables

Wehani rice, bred by the Lundberg family of Northern California, packs such a wallop of nutty flavor that it needs little embellishment. Top with whatever vegetables are in season. Experience will teach you when the rice is about 10 minutes from being done, so you can add the vegetables.
