Arroz Blanco
Dominican cuisine is based primarily on rice. There are many rice dishes in the Dominican Republic, but none is more popular or essential than Arroz Blanco. It also serves as the foundation for La Bandera Dominicana (the Dominican flag), a traditional Dominican lunch consisting of white rice, stewed beans, Pollo Guisado or Res Guisada (braised chicken or beef), and salad.
The final test of a qualified Dominican cook is a good Arroz Blanco. The rice should be cooked through but firm, with grains totally separated from one another, and a layer of crispy, golden Concón should form on top.
