Depends on the quality of the rice. If it is good rice, it tastes great plain. If it's so-so rice, a little furikake helps.

I was told to NEVER put shoyu on rice, but I do if there's no one to object. Just a little Yamasa or Kikkoman, mmm.

I also like to put a scoop of rice into my miso soup if the soup base is very strong...

I don't like my rice hot. Because I can't enjoy the food when it's hot so i let it cool down first. Then add soy sauce or salt.

I usually have it w/ loads of butter or beef gravy...then again, not a lot of things taste good w/ the rice my mom buys

Asians hate when you eat white rice with just soy sauce on it because soy sauce isn't used as a topping for white rice; it is used as a sauce for cooking different meals

If I were the chef and had seen that, I would have punched him in the head.

I have also seen couples eat sushi and use nearly a whole (6oz?) bottle of soy sauce. If I use more than a small pour I am feeling a sodium induced heart -attack.

nothing wrong with pepper or ra-yu on ramen, but everything else there is a nono

Sticky as hell.

Oh, and with a bit of soy sauce.

odd, my aunt who is from Japan is the one that got me started using soy sauce on some rice dishes ... mostly fried rice ... she also got me hooked on katsup on my eggs to ...

mostly i just eat my rice plain, or with some green tea ... occasionally i will mix it in with tofu miso soup
