@@Rosenkruzt ikr. The first thing our ancestors and our parents taught us is to never waste and be thankful of our blessings, especially the rice in our table. Rice isn't just a meal we can't live without, but it is our culture in one bowl.
Commercial or home kitchen, boil and drain is not good as you cannot control how much water it absorbs. It would end up absorbing too much and becoming too soft. It's OK for Caucasians that don't know how to cook rice but certainly not for people from rice eating countries. About 15 years ago, I had hard half-cooked rice in a rice salad served in the Intercontinental Hotel in Toronto. If a 5-star hotel could not do it right, what do you expect from an average Caucasian?
As a Brazilian I missed some seasonings. The way the chef did it is very similar to how we do it in Brazil, but before putting it in the pan, we put oil, or olive oil, then add onion and garlic and let it brown. Only then do we add the rice and sauté for a few seconds to get the flavor and add water. Then we finished as the chef showed in the video
I do it very similar, but I also add Turmeric (ground) not only turns ‘yellow’ but for health reasons as you might know the health benefit of turmeric and you can hardly taste much turmeric tbh. But I will try your method tonight as it sounds quite exotic
What a waste of rice. Farmers did not suffer cultivating the land, making sure the weather is right, patiently waiting for the time of harvest, and suffer through harvest, despite being underpaid, and have had most of their land taken from them only for you to butcher their work like that. Growing rice is not a joke kids. Every grain counts. Cook it properly and finish your plate.
@@bd-nl9ee Only asians who knows how to respect ppl would know this fact. A lot of Asian parents would always tell their kids not to waste rice on their plates and force them to finish it if they don't. Cuz the farmers take a lot of effort to grow rice and harvest it and etc. Not everyone is born being fed by a golden spoon like u. Rmb where you came from or ask ur parents and their ancestors. Ur ancestors did not sacrifice their happiness to provide for their children and so on till ur generation for you to mock their hard work. Not everyone comes from the top.
My rice was always coming out mushy and soggy. I followed your instructions today and I'm so happy. Thank you, this is the first time my rice came out this good.
They way I do Fried the rice for a while until it get Brown color After water double size and and do not cover Let It Cook medium fire. When gets dry Lower.fire.and cover. For 15 minutes.
yup rice cooker. problem with the stove cooked rice is you need to lower the heat at some point. with the rice cooker it's automatic and generally more precise with the cooking.
@@brandonkinzjuliusjaugan7601 yes your definitely right even ramsey didnt cook rice properly. Saw one of his videos doing the same thing what bbc does. And when he tried to do it in a rice cooker, it also became like porridge
Note that 1:2 method for rice and water depends on the rice type as well. For jasmine rice i recommend 1:1.75 For brown rice: 1:2.5 For japanese rice: 1:2 I can see the chef was using indian basmati rice so maybe that is why the ratio is 1:2 Also we dont normally use a strainer when washing rice but no problem with using it. It looks fancy but you are adding more utensils to wash later. You should also wash rice at least twice. Unless you are using a “no wash rice” (musenmai) which is something i only saw in japan. Depends if you are using a rice cooker or a pan with lid as well. In both cases ensure your lid is TRANSPARENT so you can see the rice without opening the lid. (This will help cook your rice perfectly) If you are using pan, you might also wonder when to remove the lid. wait for the rice to boil and spill A BIT of water out. Don’t panic. As soon as it does, remove the lid, put the fire on the lowest setting, and cover again. (Do this as quick as you can). Once lid is on do not touch and wait for the rice to cook. When do you know your rice is cooked? Your lid is transparent. You should be able to see how the rice looks. If it is no longer soggy and looks perfect then it is good to serve. If you are clueless white man then wait for soggyness to be gone, open the lid try it out. If it tastes perfect like your nearby asian restaurant turn off the heat and serve.
See a girl upload a video try to replicate the fried rice recipe. And she nervous about if her parent walk in to the kitchen when she drain and rinse the rice.

Who doesn’t? I bet every Asia people who watched this crap will be like that india lady. This stupidity is beyond imagination. And the worst part is that blonde chick got a vid on ytb teaching people to make the same crap.
Because I am from India, I could not think its difficult for some people to get the rice perfectly cooked. Also the water measure depends on the type of the rice specially the red boiled rice that is used in South India, requires a lot of water.
Westerner to Asian: You wanna come to my house for dinner? Asian: Sure, what are you gonna cook? Westerner: Rice Asian: I just remembered I have something else to do.
I thought this was going to be some epic secret of cooking rice, so disappointed. That is the most basic way to cook rice that everyone should know or get yourself a rice cooker sheesh.
I was just going to write; buy a rice cooker, a bag of rice and follow the instructions on the package. Besides, 1:2 ratio is not for all types of rice. Some need only 1:1.5, while other rice has precise instructions of 1.7 times the water.
Maybe in England they don't have the instructions on bag or she buys out of a bin and her family never taught her how to cook??? She made it like its spaghetti .. Lol
oh god people who strain their rice exist in this world. hate it here edit: i meant straining the rice after it has been "cooked." if it still has water after it has been "cooked" it means its very much undercooked or u added too much water.
Actually straining the rice before cooking is nothing different when washing the rice on the pot, it is just that its not common and we know what's worst is straining the rice and rinse after cook
@@johnronnbioco6465 wait no i meant straining it after the rice has cooked. the fact they had to strain it bc it still had water meant its not even finished cooking or added too much water
U mean draining off the excess water? That's a pretty normal thing tbh. I'm from a country where rice is a staple that's how everyone makes it here. The starch gets drained off with the water n so it doesn't get mushy. A plus point is that u don't have to worry if u put in excess water.But ig it depens on the type of rice u r using as well.
Try it the way my navy chef brother taught me. It never fails. Thoroughly wash the rice. Put rice in large pan with just enough cold water to cover it. Turn heat full on. Have a kettle of boiling water ready. When water in pan is boiling put ample water in pan from kettle. From first turning heat on it takes 7 to 8 minutes to cook. Taste rice and it will be almost but not quite cooked. Drain it and allow most of steam to escape, put rice back in pan and cover with lid. Cooking process will continue but with no water the rice can't turn mushy. You can leave it for minutes or hours and it will be light and fluffy when you go back it. I will just need to be fluffed up with a fork. Never fails.
There are a few reasons for it, some are more legitimate than others. These are the excuses I've heard: 1) westerners are obsessed with exact measurements in cooking and will legitimately freak out if you eyeball anything. 2) some people have longer fingers so they will complain that it's different for everyone and not precise (see above) 3) many would see putting your finger in the pot as unsanitary.
We all Asian don't used finger I never used finger I used my bare hand to measure the water when i was a kid but now I don't need my hand to I have my mind to measure it and i boil the rice in pressure cooker
@@captaincharisma6574 yeah, you would get there after practice, of course. You just know after awhile, but even that's too imprecise for many westerners I've met. Many will weigh it down to the gram and will legitimately freak out if you eyeball like that. Not all, of course, but my roommates nearly had a stroke when I cooked for them. I didn't measure anything and just knew how much. They won't use their hand to measure even for practice and think it's unsanitary to eat after doing so and "don't want to waste food".
Tip from Brazil: before of put the rice to cook, add some oil (olive, tasteless coconut oil or sunflower), and nice thin-sliced garlic, add just a bit of salt. You can also add turmeric, not just for taste but mainly for health benefits. In resume: Start by sautéing chopped garlic, put salt, and if you like put Tumeric.
us asians dont do that, because our curries and side dishes taste different from brazilian dishes so plain rice goes best with our food, not the seasoned rice
A year ago BBC showed us the proper way to cook rice, giving us hope that british is changed people now, at least in cooking. But they proved that they are still british yet, who even make jelly out of goddamned fish. I guess they had declared a war to whole Asia.
Yes we all know that. We were talking about bbc's recent cooking video how to cook the egg fried rice. Although they have uploaded this video an year ago, how to properly cook rice, they uploaded the video doing exactly that blonde girl did and ruins even further. BBC haven't learn anything from their past I guess.
홍준익 I even saw Gordan Ramsey’s view of making rice.... and sadly enough, he did it the weird way and called it “perfect rice.” At least he did some things that is considered to be acceptable.... *kInDa*
I didn’t learn how to cook rice by watching this video. So proud to know how to measure water by finger in rice cooker from grandma when I was 10 years old =))) No chef needed.
The funny thing about this video is that the BBC shows how not to improperly make rice, and then the egg fried rice video uses this same terrible method.
We've NOT been cooking it wrongly. It's you who has been cooking wrongly. Please don't yoke us together with you in that pool of shame. Cooking rice is as easy as ABC!! 😜 😜
@Nguyễn Hải Dương wtf hundreds of dollars?! Its only a couple dollars for 1 rice cooker. Even my third rate country as Indonesia it should around 30-50 usd. If u buy a reaally high quality stuff, like Zojiroshi, only when it gets to hundreds dollars
Some Asian kids in rural countries were taught to use the pot, but with the right Asian method, before rice cookers. But yeah, the woman's watery rice looked Hella nasty
Meanwhile actual Asians: *scoop out rice into rice cooker pot, rinse it, pour water in with a finger as measurement, close the lid, switch it on and leave it.
The Indian lady chef is correct and what you said is also correct. The difference is only on the cooking tools. Normally Asian people like me, we use the rice cooker in regular basis. We use sausepan when rice cooker is not available at the moment. And of course, we likes to be quick and use the simple method (traditional technique) which is measure the water by using the finger. 😁
I'm Asian, but some crazy punk was washing rice. But here, I didn't wash my rice and my rice was bubbling. When you make fried rice at a restaurant run by bbc, wash the rice and give it to them. There will be magic that will eliminate customers.
I am half Irish half Indonesian and I know very well how to cook rice. I prefer the steaming method though, you can include some herb to make the rice more flavorful.
first world country don't read they rather look for the 1800 number on the bag to call and ask for instructions when it's right there and even if they do see the instructions they'll call to ask the same question just to get the same answer
I don't even know that these instructions are there on the rice bag, I thought this is common sense for any person who started to cook, well that's the first thing taught to us anyway and many people who cook like this are not even literate. 😂
The rice I buy says to cook for 10 minutes then drain the remaining water. Nothing about filling to your knuckle, or even this lady's measuring volumes.
@@davids3539 Actually, different rice varieties have different ways to cook. For e.g. in India we have different measures and techniques for basmati rice (used for biryani) and normal rice. The technique shown here is the one we use for normal rice and that's a pretty standard technique.
@@sujith3914 1st thing i learned to cook was eggs because it was cheap and easy to teach a child. Regardless, I can't imagine anyone told you to throw rice and water in a pot and see what happens with no other directions.
A little condescending don't you think? If you have never been taught how then you don't know. Simple as that. A 10 yr old kid wouldn't do any better unless they are taught. And lets face it, cooking directions on rice packets are useless plus different types of rice need cooking differently.
@@marcojany says who? Ive been a chef for 30yrs guess whats the quickest way to cook perfect pasta? Oil, cold water, heat. By time water has come to boil the pasta is cooked.....why wait till its boiled then add another 6-7 minutes to cooking time?
@@devamshah3110 soak rice for 30 mins. Put water in a pot and bring it to a boil. Wash rice and add it to pot. Let it cook. You don't have to close the pot. Add salt of you want. Let it cook completely. Drain the excess water. We call the process 'saatham vadippathu'
From the Caribbean too, so brought up with the closed pan method, and always thoroughly rinse it out before cooking it. Seen this open pan method in Europe, also on some cooking shows. But I guess you really need to know what you're doing as to not under or over cook it. Don't know what she was doing with the tapping though.
No body call her blonde...also you need to put salt and 2 table spoon of oil in the water..waiting to be boiling and add the race...wen you see that the water is evaporated then you lower the burner to low and put the led on , don't touch for 25 minutes then you should stern and put top on for 5 minutes more..it will be ready. The water you use depends of de grain of the race. 1 on 1 if is short and medium race 1 1/2 or 2 cup of water for 1 of long race
Fun facts. The *boil and strain* method of cooking rice has been dominant in Britain for hundreds of years. Carolina Gold, once the most popular rice grown in America, and the first commercial rice the country ever produced, was immensely popular and thousands upon thousands of pounds of it were exported as far away as France, England, and Asia. In 1820, approximately 100,000 acres of it was growing throughout the South. In the colonies, and later the USA, the *absorption method* was the common way to cook rice, that knowledge most likely coming from Africa. I grew up in Spain, and the *absorption method* is what is used there. Great Britain is only 500 miles away from coast to coast, but the cooking cultures could not be more different.
Portuguese people make the rice like this but we lightly fry in olive oil some onions shopped and then put the rice, mix and the water , salt and a bay leaf. Let steam . It tastes amazing
That's good, but there's an even better method (Iranian): 1. Use long grain Basmati rice. Rinse it until the water runs clear (like in the video). 2. Add it to a very large pan of boiling water and boil hard, stirring very frequently. 3. After about 3-4 minutes, extract some with a fork and taste it. If it cracks under your teeth, continue cooking. 4. AS SOON as it no longer cracks (also, it turns much whiter) drain it thoroughly. (This step is critical.) 5. Put it into a hot pan or dish, with a thin layer of molten butter at the bottom. 6. Add a little butter on top and make a few deep holes for the steam to escape. 7. Wrap the lid in a tea towel, put it tightly on the pan or dish and keep it hot. (A pan warmer is ideal.) 8. Leave it alone for at least 15 minutes. You can leave it longer - even an hour or two. It takes a bit of practice to get it right, but the result should be perfectly fluffy rice that doesn't stick together at all (unlike in the video). Another advantage is that it can be prepared in advance, which is ideal for entertaining. (The Iranians like the brown crust that forms at the bottom with the butter, but I'm not a fan.)
@@vkanclassicalvt8165 , it sounds like you've been buying the wrong rice, because every package of rice I've ever bought tells you to rinse the rice, use the ratio of 2:1, bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, simmer, covered, for 10-15 minutes, remove from heat, let stand covered 5 minutes or until water is absorbed, fluff with fork and serve. ⬆Everything she said to do in the video.
Observation method also had way of Sautéed the rice 🍚 before add water 💦 that help to make the seeds keep shape of the rice! And not let it to break into parts
gamerboy striker are you even asian.... We asians don’t use cups to measure... We use the “finger tip trick”, so the way we use it is basically: We put any amount of water but not too much probably 1/4 less But we wash the rice first then put the clean rice then put the water Then we put our finger in the pan/pot or anything, if you see on our point finger at the top there is a line now you need to make sure the water is halft o the line on the finger (if you understand) we don’t use cups :/
And do read the directions because there are many different types of rice and they may recommend different water to rice ratios or different simmer times. Honestly, just take a moment to read. And never peek before it's time.
So, wait -- there are people in the world who actually cook rice by throwing a random amount in a pan, along with a random amount of water, and cook it without a lid? I mean, there are instructions on packages of rice that give you the appropriate amount and time. I will admit I didn't know about rinsing until my son (who is very serious about Japanese cooking) told me to do that. A rice cooker is the best way to go, too. My son's method involves rinsing the rice in the rice cooker pan, letting it sit and air dry for 20 minutes, then adding the water and soaking it overnight (he usually eats rice with breakfast). It's amazingly perfect every time. (I'm too lazy to do that, but the rinsing makes a huge difference.)
That's what my wife does. Doesn't matter if it's on the stove or in a rice cooker she doesn't measure yet its perfect every time. Of course she's Filipino so she's been making rice since she could walk, lol.
Persians do basmati rice without measuring and without a lid, but they rinse and soak the rice first and after boiling/draining they put it back in the pot with a lid and steam it for another 40 minutes or so. It comes out nice and fluffy, much more so than the one the chef makes in the video.
Tbh as Asian, the blond lady cringed me. And there are actually various ways to cook rice with also different kind of rice but this probably only considered as common knowledge in countries that eat rice as their main dish.
Ok, I try this now and I am nervous. I have never done it before. Now I am done and it has turned out perfectly. Thank you so much for this. Bless you.
@@dpnctl It's almost like there are people who aren't that experienced in cooking in general and even those who are have different experiences every time. It's almost like we live on a planet with very little absolutes.
i dont trust people who : >didn't wash their raw rice >didnt measure the water with the 1st joint of their finger >strain their cooked rice >making wet rice
Been cooking rice since I was 10 years old and cannot figure how people screw it up. Always a 2:1 ratio of water to rice. However, I get my water by itself to a boil - as soon as it starts to roll I pour in my rice, stir, cover with lid and turn heat down to low. Set the timer for 20 minutes and done. If I decide I want to add some onion soup mix to flavor the rice then I might add just a tad more water.

In search of New technique
I thought this was going to be some epic secret of cooking rice, so disappointed. That is the most basic way to cook rice that everyone should know or get yourself a rice cooker sheesh.
I was just going to write; buy a rice cooker, a bag of rice and follow the instructions on the package.
Besides, 1:2 ratio is not for all types of rice. Some need only 1:1.5, while other rice has precise instructions of 1.7 times the water.
I thought the same... That is just basic knowledge About how to cook rice...
Or just read the cooking instructions 🤨
I know right. Are people this retar...sorry. My privilege of having parents made me forget that some people weren't taught these things.
Maybe in England they don't have the instructions on bag or she buys out of a bin and her family never taught her how to cook???
She made it like its spaghetti .. Lol

oh god people who strain their rice exist in this world. hate it here
edit: i meant straining the rice after it has been "cooked." if it still has water after it has been "cooked" it means its very much undercooked or u added too much water.
Actually straining the rice before cooking is nothing different when washing the rice on the pot, it is just that its not common and we know what's worst is straining the rice and rinse after cook
@@johnronnbioco6465 wait no i meant straining it after the rice has cooked. the fact they had to strain it bc it still had water meant its not even finished cooking or added too much water
U mean draining off the excess water? That's a pretty normal thing tbh. I'm from a country where rice is a staple that's how everyone makes it here. The starch gets drained off with the water n so it doesn't get mushy. A plus point is that u don't have to worry if u put in excess water.But ig it depens on the type of rice u r using as well.
@@zara-he3jh i meant after cooking.
Lmao the perfect measure of water is on your middle finger
Try it the way my navy chef brother taught me. It never fails. Thoroughly wash the rice. Put rice in large pan with just enough cold water to cover it. Turn heat full on. Have a kettle of boiling water ready. When water in pan is boiling put ample water in pan from kettle. From first turning heat on it takes 7 to 8 minutes to cook. Taste rice and it will be almost but not quite cooked. Drain it and allow most of steam to escape, put rice back in pan and cover with lid. Cooking process will continue but with no water the rice can't turn mushy. You can leave it for minutes or hours and it will be light and fluffy when you go back it. I will just need to be fluffed up with a fork. Never fails.

There are a few reasons for it, some are more legitimate than others. These are the excuses I've heard:
1) westerners are obsessed with exact measurements in cooking and will legitimately freak out if you eyeball anything.
2) some people have longer fingers so they will complain that it's different for everyone and not precise (see above)
3) many would see putting your finger in the pot as unsanitary.
We all Asian don't used finger I never used finger I used my bare hand to measure the water when i was a kid but now I don't need my hand to I have my mind to measure it and i boil the rice in pressure cooker
@@captaincharisma6574 yeah, you would get there after practice, of course. You just know after awhile, but even that's too imprecise for many westerners I've met. Many will weigh it down to the gram and will legitimately freak out if you eyeball like that. Not all, of course, but my roommates nearly had a stroke when I cooked for them. I didn't measure anything and just knew how much. They won't use their hand to measure even for practice and think it's unsanitary to eat after doing so and "don't want to waste food".
@@alsinakiria culture differences😂
Yeah, I agree. My family still uses this method.
Tip from Brazil: before of put the rice to cook, add some oil (olive, tasteless coconut oil or sunflower), and nice thin-sliced garlic, add just a bit of salt. You can also add turmeric, not just for taste but mainly for health benefits.
In resume: Start by sautéing chopped garlic, put salt, and if you like put Tumeric.
us asians dont do that, because our curries and side dishes taste different from brazilian dishes so plain rice goes best with our food, not the seasoned rice

A year ago BBC showed us the proper way to cook rice, giving us hope that british is changed people now, at least in cooking. But they proved that they are still british yet, who even make jelly out of goddamned fish. I guess they had declared a war to whole Asia.
they cook it the right way after showing the wrong way
Yes we all know that. We were talking about bbc's recent cooking video how to cook the egg fried rice. Although they have uploaded this video an year ago, how to properly cook rice, they uploaded the video doing exactly that blonde girl did and ruins even further. BBC haven't learn anything from their past I guess.

Yes, but the Indian lady did it correct too, her method is better in a professional setting and is more precise than finger measuring.
The Indian lady chef is correct and what you said is also correct. The difference is only on the cooking tools. Normally Asian people like me, we use the rice cooker in regular basis. We use sausepan when rice cooker is not available at the moment. And of course, we likes to be quick and use the simple method (traditional technique) which is measure the water by using the finger. 😁

From the Caribbean too, so brought up with the closed pan method, and always thoroughly rinse it out before cooking it. Seen this open pan method in Europe, also on some cooking shows.

The Indian lady also made up a crappy rice doe...
Fun facts. The *boil and strain* method of cooking rice has been dominant in Britain for hundreds of years. Carolina Gold, once the most popular rice grown in America, and the first commercial rice the country ever produced, was immensely popular and thousands upon thousands of pounds of it were exported as far away as France, England, and Asia. In 1820, approximately 100,000 acres of it was growing throughout the South. In the colonies, and later the USA, the *absorption method* was the common way to cook rice, that knowledge most likely coming from Africa. I grew up in Spain, and the *absorption method* is what is used there. Great Britain is only 500 miles away from coast to coast, but the cooking cultures could not be more different.
the ratio of water to rice depends on the kind of rice used. 1 to 2 will be too soggy for other varieties.
Use basmati rice. Other types of rice are disgusting.

Ghanaians cook rice that way as well without the bay leaf. That’s cool!!
in india sometimes rice is boiled with a bay leaf too.
These whites dont even know how to rinse rice... Byw that sounds so good
Bro, Portuguese too ... I thought this was the way everyone did... Like... It's just rice... This woman is dumb af.
That's good, but there's an even better method (Iranian):
1. Use long grain Basmati rice. Rinse it until the water runs clear (like in the video).
2. Add it to a very large pan of boiling water and boil hard, stirring very frequently.
3. After about 3-4 minutes, extract some with a fork and taste it. If it cracks under your teeth, continue cooking.
4. AS SOON as it no longer cracks (also, it turns much whiter) drain it thoroughly. (This step is critical.)
5. Put it into a hot pan or dish, with a thin layer of molten butter at the bottom.
6. Add a little butter on top and make a few deep holes for the steam to escape.
7. Wrap the lid in a tea towel, put it tightly on the pan or dish and keep it hot. (A pan warmer is ideal.)
8. Leave it alone for at least 15 minutes. You can leave it longer - even an hour or two.
It takes a bit of practice to get it right, but the result should be perfectly fluffy rice that doesn't stick together at all (unlike in the video). Another advantage is that it can be prepared in advance, which is ideal for entertaining. (The Iranians like the brown crust that forms at the bottom with the butter, but I'm not a fan.)

It's so much easier to cook rice in proper way though, just have to follow the instruction.
Measurement is only for western
Cup (random as long its small) is for asian.
gamerboy striker are you even asian....
We asians don’t use cups to measure...
We use the “finger tip trick”, so the way we use it is basically:
We put any amount of water but not too much probably 1/4 less
But we wash the rice first then put the clean rice then put the water
Then we put our finger in the pan/pot or anything, if you see on our point finger at the top there is a line now you need to make sure the water is halft o the line on the finger (if you understand) we don’t use cups :/
gamerboy striker so basically it’s the under way round measurements is more of asian while cups for westerns :/
This is literally the instructions i see on the packages
exactly. No secret there, but, surprised the English presenter SO lacks common knowledge.
Exactly what I was thinking! How do you not know this when these are the instructions that come with rice 😂
And do read the directions because there are many different types of rice and they may recommend different water to rice ratios or different simmer times. Honestly, just take a moment to read. And never peek before it's time.
So, wait -- there are people in the world who actually cook rice by throwing a random amount in a pan, along with a random amount of water, and cook it without a lid? I mean, there are instructions on packages of rice that give you the appropriate amount and time. I will admit I didn't know about rinsing until my son (who is very serious about Japanese cooking) told me to do that. A rice cooker is the best way to go, too.
My son's method involves rinsing the rice in the rice cooker pan, letting it sit and air dry for 20 minutes, then adding the water and soaking it overnight (he usually eats rice with breakfast). It's amazingly perfect every time. (I'm too lazy to do that, but the rinsing makes a huge difference.)
That's what my wife does. Doesn't matter if it's on the stove or in a rice cooker she doesn't measure yet its perfect every time. Of course she's Filipino so she's been making rice since she could walk, lol.
Persians do basmati rice without measuring and without a lid, but they rinse and soak the rice first and after boiling/draining they put it back in the pot with a lid and steam it for another 40 minutes or so. It comes out nice and fluffy, much more so than the one the chef makes in the video.
sorry your sons such a weeb

Is it weird i am an Asian and i kinda like wet rice.
Not the Mushy one.
The rice when it is still super moist.
I like that type of rice.
Been cooking rice since I was 10 years old and cannot figure how people screw it up. Always a 2:1 ratio of water to rice. However, I get my water by itself to a boil - as soon as it starts to roll I pour in my rice, stir, cover with lid and turn heat down to low. Set the timer for 20 minutes and done. If I decide I want to add some onion soup mix to flavor the rice then I might add just a tad more water.
Cool! Is the method the same for Jasmine and Basmati rice?
