Chinese American takeout made fried rice one of the most ordered dishes in the country, served in the folded white carton with a wire handle.
Good fried rice uses day-old rice, which is drier and does not clump, tossed in a very hot wok with egg, scallions and soy sauce. The house special version adds chicken, roast pork and shrimp; the pork one gets red-edged char siu. Steamed white rice and brown rice are sold as sides for the saucy dishes, and garlic fried rice shows up at Filipino-inspired spots.
Shrimp and mixed proteins raise the price; plain rice is the cheapest line on the menu. At the Chinese places on SemFood, from $1.99 to $29.49.
