Arroz Sin Pollo: I Wish I could be Universal!

 


Arroz sin Pollo [Rice without Chicken] is the minimalist counterpart of a traditional Caribbean recipe that consists of a mixture of rice and chicken prepared in tomato sauce, seasoned with garlic, cilantro, onion, peppers, Spanish olives and salt. In this case, the dish is presented without chicken or any other ingredients, allowing for a detailed examination of the formal properties of the starch itself. Also titled: I wish I could be Universal.
