Whether it's sushi in Japan, risotto in Italy, paella in Spain, biryani in India or etouffee in New Orleans -- nearly every culture on Earth has rice at the heart of some of its most traditional dishes.
Using photographs, stories, recipes or video, tell us how your culture uses rice. It may be a story of cooking with your grandmother, a holiday dish, a family gathering, a favorite restaurant or store or a dish that brings you comfort, makes you remember and reminds you of home.
Share your connection to this special grain, and we just might include it in an upcoming feature on our food blog Eatocracy.
