Rice is served as a side dish to meat or fish, or prepared for semi-finished products - cabbage rolls, meatballs, or other fillings.

Much depends on how the grain is cooked. The main problem: when the rice should be crumbly, it sticks together. There is no pleasure in eating or cooking with such a mass.

We'll tell you how to cook grain so that it doesn't turn into mush.

Ingredient #1

The perfect side dish will be obtained if you add table vinegar. In addition to the fact that the cereal becomes crumbly, it becomes whiter.
The grain does not overcook in the pan and does not stick together.

To cook such rice, you need to add 1 tbsp of vinegar to 2 liters of water. This will not affect the taste.

The cereal needs to be washed, covered with cold water and, after boiling, add vinegar (apple, wine or balsamic).

Ingredient #2

If the housewife has a biased attitude towards vinegar, then milk can be used.

For the same amount of water you will need only two tablespoons, but it should be very cold milk.

Rice cooked with milk turns out just as crumbly and white.

The taste of the side dish changes for the better.

Bon appetit!
