throw some butter and salt in the pot with the boiling water. not a lot, maybe a small spoonful of butter and two sprinkles of salt.

Salt, you fucking retard. Add salt. Until you think it tastes great. I usually just put a few good shakes of salt and sometimes margarine.

Stop making dry rice and make it like in OP pic

As a certified chingchong-american, butter/margarine in plain rice are strange to me, but probably not unreasonable. Putting straight salt in rice is also something I've never done, but eating it with salty things is typical.

Pretty much any strongly-flavored side dish will make rice that much better, especially stuff that's too salty to eat on its own comfortably. Salty canned fish, kimchi, or tiny roasted anchovies are pretty standard. Soy sauce-soaked vegetables is another idea. Buy packs of roasted laver and use it to wrap the rice as in pic related.

If you truly wish to learn the art of making bland rice tasty, find some asian friends and eat with their families once or twice. Millennia of culture dedicated to padding out bland rice has come up with some great shit.

You don't eat white rice on it's own, it doesn't make any sense. It's like making a pot of mashed potatoes, putting it in a bowl and just eating that. You need to have other dishes to pair with the white rice. Cook some other shit.

If you really are dumb enough to cook a bowl of white rice with nothing else prepared then you can do things like put lard/butter and soy sauce on it. If you have mayo then squirting a mound of mayo on it might work.
