Practically perfect in every way
OK, I get the cooking part. But there are some things I see others do, but some people don't. So which is right?
1. Do I wash the rice?
2. Do I pre-soak the rice before cooking?
3. Do I put a towel over the pot to keep the steam in?
4. Do I add salt and/or oil?
I've seen all of these being done by people who get it right. But doesn't seem to help me!
Cheers, Neale
only after cooking rinse through with boiling water to get rid of starchiness
no
no but a lid on the saucepan might help!
i add oil, before putting water it put a glug of oil in and stir all the rice around so it's seperated, this will stop it sticking together.
keep stirring it while you cook it, and do a medium heat, too high or too low will make it go manky.
and yes as someone else said, good quality rice will help you out a lot!
