Tell me the details like what makes yours perfect, why, and your cultural influence if any. I mean, rice is totally different with Mexican, Chinese, Indian, Japanese, and Persian food just to name a few. It is not just the spices or sauces I’m mostly interested in. These matter too. I am really interested in the grain variety and specifically how you prep, cook, and absolutely anything you do after. Don’t skip the cultural details that you might otherwise presume everyone does. Do you know why some brand or region produces better ingredients, say so. I know it seems simple and mundane but it really is not. I want to master your rice as you make it in your culture. Please tell me how.

So, how do you do rice?

    The Uncle Roger way

    • Rinse the rice in the rice cooker with water.
    • Measure the amount of rice in the rice cooker by sticking your finger in the rice and pinching with your thumb. Take note of the rice level with your thumb.
    • The water level should be slightly less than what you measured with your finger.

      The ol’ knuckle method never fails.

      Also really, if you want perfect rice, it’s a rice cooker. Consistent and gets results, not to mention fast.

      Edit: Also don’t skip on washing the rice. Seen enough recipes that skip on that. Ewwww.
