Stir-Fried Rice

When preparing stir-fried rice from scratch, prepare Chinese long grain white rice per the package directions and once the rice has cooled a few minutes, place in the refrigerator, covered, overnight. Remove the rice 10 minutes or so before preparing stir-fried rice to allow the rice to come up to room temperature.

Scallions

Scallions are also known as green onions or salad onions and can be found in most supermarkets and farmers markets.
