 out of interest what stops you using turmeric instead of yellow colour? I'm sure 1.5 to 2 tsp would be same colour result, is it taste thingy?

Combination of experience and advice / suggestions on here that turmeric can add a bitter taste. Not totally convinced on that as 1. I have used turmeric before and 2. The amount would be very minimal to the quantity of rice.

OK mate. Never found turmeric to be bitter, not criticizing, good looking rice!

The rice does indeed look very good; I am not a fan of yellow rice, but the addition of the sparse red and green grains makes yours look very attractive indeed, as does the fact that the yellow is saturated and not washed out.  I agree with your choice of food colouring over turmeric; if the latter is not properly bhooned it can, in my experience, taste very earthy indeed.

Think I may do a batch of pure white then mix and blend as the mood takes me.
