Rice is used as a side dish and as an ingredient in the preparation of various dishes.
However, it is not always possible to cook it so that it remains crumbly and tasty.
Not every housewife is ready to boast about the secret of how to properly cook crumbly and non-sticky rice.
Tips for Cooking Rice
Before cooking, rice must be thoroughly rinsed under running water to remove excess starch and dust.
Then soak the rice in water for 15-20 minutes if you want to cook the dish as quickly as possible.
Cook rice grains in a thick-bottomed saucepan with a tight-fitting lid. This will prevent steam from escaping quickly and will preserve the softness of the product.
Remember to maintain the correct rice to water ratio using this formula:
- 1 part rice 2 parts water.
Forget about the unhealthy habit of constantly stirring rice grains during cooking. This leads to the rice turning into a sticky mass of dull color.
Place the rice in boiling water, stir 1-2 times and leave until done.
After cooking, leave the rice in a closed pan for 5-10 minutes to swell and become even more crumbly.
Cook rice easily and simply using time-tested, practical tips.
