This option is not mentioned:

using (var client = new HttpClient())
{
    client.BaseAddress = new Uri("http://localhost:9000/");
    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));

    var foo = new User
    {
        user = "Foo",
        password = "Baz"
    }

    await client.PostAsJsonAsync("users/add", foo);
}
