How to Serve Rice Cakes
These rice cakes are so versatile. Since rice takes on the flavor of the foods around it, the options for serving these cakes are endless. Try pairing them with a baked white fish, such as halibut or cod, with lemon and pepper sauce or sautéed vegetables with soy sauce. Enjoy!
