I find most foods are best as soon as they are made, but some things seem to get better when the flavors have more time to meld. The only two I can think of right now are chili and hummus. What other dishes am I forgetting, or haven’t tried that you think get better with a little time?

    fried rice is better with old rice

    Very recently learned this after wondering why my fried rice was coming out so clumpy and mushy. It needs to sit in a fridge overnight for the starches to calm down and dry

      You can use a dehydrator or oven to speed up the process but yea - there’s a good reason fried rice recipes ask for day old rice.
