Tips for Pickle Fried Rice

Day-old rice tends to stay separate and fry up less sticky than freshly cooked rice.
The rice should look lightly golden with distinct grains; a crowded skillet can make it steam and turn soft.
Taste before adding much salt, since pickles can already contribute plenty of saltiness.
