Rice On The Stove

broderic on February 11, 2015

I don’t have a rice cooker. Mine was broken.

What? An asian without a rice cooker?

Psshaw! You don’t need one. There’s plenty of ways to cook rice.

Currently, I cook it on the stove. Here’s how.

One cup of rice. Not the big normal measuring cup, but the cup that came with your broken rice cooker. Turns out that’s half a normal measuring cup.

Rice is usually cooked in a one-to-one water ratio. I add slightly more.

Before you cook it, rinse it in cold water. I rinse twice, then let sit for a couple of more minutes.

Cook on medium heat for about 10 to 12 minutes or until all water is gone.

Serve!

    i usually do 2 to 1 for 30 minutes on stove top. Brown Rice.

    i had a microwave rice cooker but it always makes gummy rice. that's only good for sushi.

    all of my relatives use rice cookers tho. Perfect every time.

    i might get one in the near future.

    Yeah, brown rice takes a bit water than white rice. I used to do 2 to 1 for white rice, but my mom said it was too much.

    The rice cooker is perfect because it knows when to turn off. I started to time just to know when to take the pot off the burner.
