Default Forbidden rice playground

I experimented lately with Forbidden/Black/Purple rice. Amusing grain! Congee and Sticky dessert are pretty obvious, I went further. Succeeded at making it fluffy, realized that pre-soaking washes out huge deal of flavor and cooking in broth leaves MSG-like aftertaste (organic chicken MSG-free used) - even used it in paella. Wonder what if it gets exposed to high heat being slightly undercooked?

Suggestions anybody?

Dont try to change the composition of the rice let it be itself. Its a beautiful grain. Its best with a french touch....BUTTER!!!!! I did it with a pan seared seabass, crispy skin, haricot vert puree.

At last, foodie with grain knowledge! Thank you for respond!

Have you tried to pre-soak or sweat in butter before cooking in liquid?
I'm gonna play with inner/outer chewiness, what'd you suggest?
