Jasmine rice is an Asian style rice which is typically grown in South East Asian countries like Thailand and Cambodia. Jasmine Rice has a more aromatic and sweeter flavor than regular white rice. Although Jasmine Rice is typically found in Asian cuisines, it can be found in recipes all over the world, for example in this Italian inspired Pumpkin and Spinach Layered Casserole.
Sesame oil is used to give food a distinct Asian flavor and can often be used to saute meats and vegetables along with being added to dressings and marinades. You can typically find sesame oil in recipes for Asian dishes like this Easy Sesame Hoisin Shrimp With Rice and Quinoa recipe.

Plenty of recipes call for either red, yellow or green bell peppers, but have you ever wondered what the actual difference is between them? The truth is that they are more similar than you might have guessed. They are really just the same pepper but at different stages of the ripening process, with green peppers being the least ripened, yellow in the middle and red being the most ripened. Red peppers tend to have a sweeter taste than green peppers which are more bitter. Yellow peppers are somewhere between the two in the bitter/sweet taste spectrum. For a great recipe which uses bell peppers, check out this simple Red Beans and Rice recipe.
