    Honestly it depends on the rice when you're measuring water. Recently my mum was making soggy rice all the time. I checked it out and realised she changed brands, so I taught her a trick: when you realise the rice is cooked and it's still wet, take the lid off and release the steam while keeping the stove on low. To prevent burning, gently fold the rice to allow more steam to come out. It may take an extra 10mins but the rice will eventually start drying out and firming up. Welcome to thermal dynamics ala kitchen. Gotta love science 👩🏾‍💻🍚👩🏾‍🍳

    Throwing down the challenge: there’s a way to make fried rice using fresh rice. Go back and watch the fried rice series by Alex the French Guy. There’s a technique taught to him by a Michelin star Cantonese chef that allows the use of fresh rice and still creates the individual slightly dry grains.

    It doesn't matter if it's the same dish that's been reviewed ten times already, I ALWAYS learn something new in every video! Please don't stop making content! I'm learning so much! I didn't actually know you should fry the shallots with completely cold oil at the beginning. After you explained it, it made a ton of sense, though.
    And opening day is coming up! Best of luck! If I ever make it out to that side of the pond, I'll definitely swing by.
    Random question, though... to be considered for the giveaway, do we have to comment that we want to be considered, or is it an automatic thing? Because I would like to join the lottery, but I hate commenting being all like, "I want free sh*t please!" I would just much rather comment on the contents of the video. I ask because all three previous winners had commented about wanting the merch, so I was getting curious.

    Nothing wrong with putting scallions in early if you're using it to flavor the oil. In Korean we make "pah gilum" or scallion oil and that seems to me like what he's doing it here. Flavoring the oil with the green onions so I think there's a difference in what Josh is doing here and what Jamie did in a previous video. I dunno what Jamie was doing there but it didnt add to his dish.

    There are 3 different kinds of sesame oil used in Chinese cooking. Depending on the exaction method, some of them can be used for high temp cooking (for example, in dishes like ginger duck stew 姜母鸭 or sesame chicken stew 麻油鸡). The kind used for high temp cooking is usually the dark variety and less fragrant. The ones we can easily find in north America asian grocery stores are machine chopped and pressed. They are dark reddish brown, medium in fragrance and not great for high temp cooking but will tolerate SOME heat. My favorite kind (and the most fragrant) is from northern China. It is stone milled then oil is exacted using hot water. they do not tolerate any heat at all. it's usually used as condiments after the food is done cooking (eg: adding a few drops to a bowl of noodles or cold dishes) because they would char almost immediately in a hot pan due to the high water content. Sesame blend oil are often advertised as sesame oil as well, but I don't consider that real sesame oil

    Thanks for standing up for the classics. You occasionally feel that all you get is someone's take on something and it's never the thing that is actually imprinted on your brain, if you grew up with the... origins... The right classic takes you home wherever you are. A take rarely does.

    9:05 - I'm hearing this often, especially from Uncle Roger's videos (used to excellent comedic effect, I know), but I find that 'feel' is the common way of home cooking everywhere. My father made crackin' baked beans in a crock pot. I asked him how much of certain ingredients he'd put in and he said he didn't know exactly how much, he just knew when it was right. It would have been the same for my grandmothers; I watched them both cook and bake dozens of times and not once did they use measuring utensils. 'Feeling' in home cooking, I'd say, is the common way just about everywhere.

    Fun tip for home cooks who don't want to wait until the next day for fried rice, do a quick parboil on the stove 1-2 minutes and then move the rice to bamboo steamer (or a stainless steel one) with cheese cloth or a thin cloth napkin and steam it 20-30 minutes or until al dente. You get nice separated grains without adding much moisture, ready to fry after an hour drying in the fridge.

    I use sesame oil to sear off my steaks. I love the mild flavor that imparts on my steaks. I also use it to fry shallots off if I'm making something like a mushroom sauce. I love the notes. The heat kills the powerful flavor so it doesn't overcome the meat, but instead gives it a nice, accenting note.

    The boiling method is actually common in the philippines because rice cookers are expensive and will always get beat the eff down with how often we cook rice(3 times a day we literally eat anything with rice) and the key to this technique is timing you gotta time it when the rice is about to run out of water then you immediately cover that up and turn the flame into a very low heat and let it simmer till theres only a few to none moisture in there and its done although doing it this way is very prone to burning if you dont get your timings right but if you dont mind the socarat underneath then ur golden.

I will subscribe to you when you het in touch with Uncle roger. But anyway, kudos for you for proper overview and hints. You're grate and you DO take into account that Nigel is in his character. Good luck and fingers crossed for your further promotion. Keep it up.
    P.S. You should do smth special or scandalous to be noticed by larger and broader auditory.

    My Japanese rice cooker sung the same song. Now I have a German one. We are all about practicality, no need for it to be pleasant, so I only makes beeping sounds. I liked my Japanese one better. Had to leave it behind in Japan unfortunately.

    Hi Chef, I agree with the day old rice BUT sometimes I don't think of it. I've had good results making rice in the cooker, taking out the metal pan from inside, then pouring water along the outside of the pan to cool it down. Once the metal is cool to the touch I toss it in the fridge, and do all the other food prep. With about an hour or so to rapidly cool it makes for a pretty good alternative to day old. Schedule wise it's super easy to throw rice in a cooker right after work before you do anything else including maybe a short trip to the grocery store for fresh ingredients.
    Not exactly 3 star Michelin advice but an option vs hot rice for the casual person cooking for themselves at home.

    Here, in Brazil, we have something to wash/soak the rice before cooking it. If you search for "lavador de arroz" you'll probably find it, it doesn't have a proper name.
    We don't use rice cooker here that much and Brazilian rice is usually shallow fried with garlic and salt before cooked.

    It's how I make fried rice. I live in Brooklyn the mecca of chinese takeout, if you don't have rice for like a dollar and change you can get a box of their white rice. Leave it overnight and use that to make your rice.

    I do use Zoujirushi, and I always tend to like my rice firmer and I always have significantly less water than the lines, if I'm cooking 2 cups, I fill the ater to the 1.5 cup mark.

    People that think they need a smoker to smoke things make me laugh...the Weber Kettle was designed to be smoked on, if y'all didn't know...a Weber Kettle is the only grill you need. If you want a "fancy" kettle, buy a performer. I picked my performer up used for 80$. Best 80$ I've ever spent. Hell my dad's performer is the original performer from 1994/1995 and he still has it and it's still in fantastic shape

    That duck fat and white pepper will make a huge difference to the fried rice. Usually chinese chef will put pork lard, given its cheaply available in china and suits chinese people's taste in porky flavour product. In the west, the best or even better substitute is really duck or goose fat. As for white pepper, it's really a personal preference as whether or not to add it, but i am a huge fan of it. To me, white pepper is the second most important seasoning to fried rice next to msg. Just by looking at the ingredient, i can tell this dish is full of rich aroma from the duck fat and a real personality of the chef coming from the amount of white pepper used.

    if i don't have day old rice but want to make fried rice, i just short the rice on water by a little bit so it comes out ever so slightly drier. A lot of people cook rice past the point where its no longer crunchy and into mushy territory. There's a bigger window there than people think and in most instances in putting too much water in, they then cook until the water is gone, but by that point the rice is overcooked and mushier than ideal for fried rice.

    Nice video . I’ve been watching all your and Uncle Roger’s reaction to many of Asian foods for last three days and I can say I really enjoyed and will keep watching you guys. And Joshua, I am for that he is using measurements for his video so amateur cooks like we also can make it and taste. Again Bravo

  • @quigonkenny
    @quigonkenny 2 года назад

    Why would you be worried about avoiding moisture after washing the rice? The rice is going to be wet no matter what you do, the starch is what you want to remove, and you're about to add water to it again anyway to cook it.

    I would recommend getting an instapot instead of a rice cooker since it has the capability of doing that plus many more things. It's quite versatile

    • @jaskajokunen3716
      @jaskajokunen3716 5 месяцев назад

      my instapot makes either too mushy rice, or its hard on top. Tried using different amounts of water to no avail 😔Maybe it depends on pots. For me it's much easier to get very good rice with a rice cooker.

  • @mariannelafrance5079
    @mariannelafrance5079 2 года назад
