PERFECT WHITE RICE



Perfect White Rice image

It is possible to make perfectly fluffy white rice on the stovetop. Sauteing the rice first helps keep the rice grains separate. Keeping the pot covered for the entire cooking time traps the steam which is necessary for properly cooking the rice, and is very important. The last 5 minutes off the heat allow the rice to finish in the residual steam, without burning the bottom.

UNSTICKY WHITE RICE



Unsticky White Rice image

Is your white rice sticky? It doesn't need to be. The whole secret is in rinsing it many times in cold water to get as much starch out of it as you can before boiling it. Then you have nice fluffy rice that is all separate. It took me many years to figure that one out. It never fails.

1 cup white rice
2 1/4 cups water
salt

Steps:

  • Put the rice in a sieve and rinse many times with cold water till the water looks clear that drips from the bottom.
  • When it looks pretty clear, put it with the 2 1/4 cups water, and the salt, and cook it, covered, till done.
  • NOTE: The milky water that you will see is the starch that comes off the rice and it is the starch that makes it sticky.

BASIC STICKY RICE



Basic Sticky Rice image

Also known as "sweet rice" or glutinous rice (though it's gluten free), sticky rice is a large white grain that becomes translucent, shiny and extremely sticky when steamed. Sticky rice is a staple in Laos, where it is especially beloved, but it has ardent fans throughout Asia. Traditionally, it's cooked over steam in a conical woven basket. If you don't have such a steamer, you can use a standard stacking steamer, a colander lined with muslin or cheesecloth, or a fine mesh strainer that fits over a saucepan. For the best texture, cooking sticky rice over hot steam is ideal, but it is possible to pull it off in an electric rice cooker, using less water than usual, or in a pot on the stove. What follows are the basic instructions for success.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 1

1 cup glutinous (sweet) rice, preferably long-grain

Steps:

  • Put rice in a bowl and rinse several times in cold water until water is clear, not milky, then drain. Cover rice with cold water and let soak for at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours.
  • Drain rice using a fine-meshed sieve or colander (line with cheesecloth if colander holes are too large). Place rice over a pot of rapidly simmering water (don't allow water to touch sieve) and steam, covered, for 15 minutes.
  • Remove lid and flip rice over. Continue steaming, covered, for 10 minutes, until rice is translucent and glossy. Taste to make sure rice is completely cooked; it may take up to 10 minutes more. Turn off heat. Fluff rice with a wooden spoon, then cover and let rest for 5 minutes.
