Good thing I put Chipotle rice and vegan frosting in such close proximity on the timeline, because while I’m on version 9 or so of the rice, the frosting will (probably) be finished with version 2. This is because:

Rice Variables
amount of butter
eventual switch to margarine
amount of lime juice
lime juice in the bottle vs. lime juice in the lime
amount of cilantro
water to rice ratio
amount of salt
to rinse or not to rinse
to soak or not to soak
how long to soak

Frosting Variables
type of butter substitute
type of milk substitute

The frosting needs one more large-batch test to make sure you can’t actually tell I made it with Rice Dream, and that one’s finished.

And since I make the rules, I’m giving the remainder of vegan frosting’s 40 days to Chipotle rice.

That’s how I roll.
