    Some of these comments are absolutely ridiculous, but I personally struggled to make rice because someone else always did my cooking, so now that I'm forced to learn how to feed myself, this video was very helpful, I followed your instructions to the letter and my rice actually came out perfect. Thanks for taking the time to post this video.

      Most people don't want to buy a rice cooker that will get you the perfect rice everytime.Its okay if you don't want spend hundreds of dollars on a rice cooker. You can use a pot to get the rice you want at anytime but it takes more effort and hard to get it the right way you want it to be.

      It’s just 1 cup of rice that you’ll waste if you don’t like her method. Besides, if you want it less mushy, don’t cook it for as long.

    “How to cook the perfect rice”
    1. Get a rice cooker or pot with tight fitting lid.
    2. Wash your rice in a bowl just barely
    covered with water and gentle agitate with fingers. Drain well and repeat 2-3 times till water runs mostly clear.
    3. Put rice in pot and level out.
    4. Using your index finger, add enough water till it reaches the first knuckle.
    5. (Rice cooker) close with lid and put on cook mode. (Stove top) Turn heat low for 20-25 minutes.
    6. Let rice sit for 5 minutes before opening the lid. This allows the steam to settle and makes the perfect rice every time :)

    *How to cook rice (as told by an Asian) :*
    1. Get rice and rinse it. Don't use a sieve. Take a pan and clean the rice. Don't push in them. Just make sure your fingers are touching them and not actually breaking to clean them.
    Add water, rinse, drain. It do it until the water turns clear.
    2. Let the rice soak for a while. I do it 10 minutes tops to make them perfectly. Drain that water.
    3. Now get water gain and add your rice to a pan. Let them on a full flame for 3-4 minutes.
    4. Simmer down the flame and let them cook for another 10-15 minutes depending upon the quantity. *DON'T TOUCH THE RICE WHILE COOKING THEM. YOU DON'T WANT TO BREAK THEM.*
    5. After cooking them, check them if they have cooked but lifting them and pressing on them.
    6. If yes, turn teh flame off. And cover the rice. Let them cool for another 5 minutes without the flame. You don't want to cover the rice while making them. It'll make them mushy.
    7. Drain the water out.
    Ratios: For one cup of rice, use 2.5 cups of water. This is for standard white rice.
    Water is never excess. You can keep adding it if it evaporates. You'll drain it out in the end.
    *Alternatives: Buy a rice cooker.*

      @zmodem4619 6 лет назад +42

      I completely agree. I like the rice to individualize as grain when it's finished. In my opinion, they've done two things slightly incorrect.
      The first thing was that they've used too much water. I always go 1 3/4 liquid for every cup of rice (I don't ever use brown rice). So, 1 cup of rice = 1 3/4 cup of water (chicken or vegetable stock is WAY BETTER, though).
      The second issue is how they've incorporated the rice to the water. You add the water to the pot _before_ the rice. You bring the water to a rolling boil, then dump in the rice, without stirring in the rice. After all the rice is dropped in one go, you stir it _one_ time so you don't release tons more starch. Once you've done that, bring the rice and liquid back to a rolling boil, reduce to simmer and cover for ~17 minutes. Turn off heat, move pot over cold burner grate, and steam with no heat for an additional 6-8 minutes.
      And, that should make the perfect white rice.

Then the rice (well washed) and if you made 5 cups of rice it is 4 and 1/2 of water, we add a pinch of salt and that's it, we like grained rice, not sticky.

      Fredde This means if you measure how much water you need for the rice to be cooked, first you need to mix rice and water. Then you let your finger be submerged to the mixture until the tip of your finger touches the rice. To measure how much water, the water level must be touching the first or second wrinkle of your finger (depends on the breed of rice you are using)

      @@winterwin6971 Either your rice cooker is really bad, or you've got the wrong setting. Usually the bottom is the same as the top. Rice cooker should have only 1 setting and if you use something with multiple settings like an instant pot or so, it should still has a rice setting. It should bring the water up to a boil (the rice is moving around and would not stick to the bottom) and after that it steams the rice (it should be the same temperature everywhere). The only way I get hard rice with a rice cooker is when I reheat my rice in the rice cooker (or if i use not enough water=crunchy uncooked rice). Since there is no more water, the rice at the bottom gets all the heat and until the top part gets warm, the bottom part will be hard (Tip: just use a microwave or fry it in a pan).

    *To save water:*
    Put the rice into a bowl and fill it up with cold water. Wait for about 10 minutes and stir 2-3 times with your finger and then use new water.
    Doesn't sound right, but it does use way less water than rinsing it down.

      The difference:
      1. I wash off the starch water until its 100% gone
      2. I Usually fill the pot with water with the same ratio as the rice.
      3. I use a goddamn rice cooker (which this video barely even mentions) with no added salt or anything. The only time its different is sometimes i use coconut milk instead of water to make "nasi uduk". A specific cuisine in my country.
      4. I add seasonings AFTER i cook it cause my country's food is so filled with spices and flavours already in it, its pointless to add extra stuff on the rice.
      99/100 times i find people from asia just cooks rice plain without added stuff which sometimes confuses me why outside of asia people cook rice with added seasonings.

So getting specific instructions with measurements and time - I feel like this is something I can actually follow, memorize, and get it right every time.
