    I've been in charge of cooking rice in the family for more than 20 years that I don't even use the finger method anymore to measure water. I just put water until the spirit of my ancestors pat me and said "that's about right, child."

      How exactly do you know when it's boiling? I can't tell from the steam on the lid without lifting it. My first try a layer of rice stuck to the bottom and burned a little. Is it because I didn't wash the rice because I couldn't be bothered or I lost the boil at some point? I lifted it a little at the start to see if it was boiling. I even shook the pot a few times to move the rice (took it off the heat) but at about the fifth minute it wouldn't move

    A small tip from an Asian boy cooking rice for nearly 20 years: when your rice cooker changes from "cook" to "warm", pull out the plug and wait for 10-15'. Don't open the lid. By doing that, the rice is cooler (more edible) and not stick to pot (important!)

      @uli_ses1363 Před 7 lety +22

      13jeac it isn't hard mate... First I make the rice. The most important thing it's put the rice under water and clean it for a couple of minutes (use one of that recipient with holes, I'm not English native speaker). Then you need to boil water. Two cups of water for one cup of rice. After boiling, put rice with salt and pepper and let it cook with low fire and a toaster (for kitchen) for twenty minutes. So, fire, toaster, rice. For the sauce just cook the shrimps or any meat you want for a couple of minutes, then add vegetables, any one you like. Pepper's, onion, garlic, etc. After everything is cooked add salt, pepper, and any other seasoning you like. Try to make the plate look beautiful for you mom and good luck!

      Gordon: Now most people, when they boil water think....boiling water. WROONG!
      You wanna flavor it up. Otherwise its just too plain. First, take 2 cups of water into your pot, and you're gonna wanna squeeze the juice of HALF a lemon into it. And let the seeds sit in there. You're gonna take those out when you're through. For now let them simmer.
      Next we add a bit of Okra. But its important that you slice and shave it. So its not so slimey in the end result. Some people like the texture. And in certain dishes its quite good. But for boiling water. Its a bit much.
      Now what you're gonna do after letting your pot reach boiling point is you're gonna scoop out those seeds. But don't throw em away. You're gonna wanna take em while they're still nice and hot, and shove em firmly up your nose, ears, and arsehole. You want EVERY ORFICE FILLED. No holes left besides your mouth. You're gonna eat those later.
      And once you're fully engulfed by the odorous stench of your own burnt bum getting past your clogged up nostrils, the water is ready.
      You're gonna take that pot, and turn it....riiight over your own fuckin head cus I'm the cook, what I say goes. And you're a bleeding lil cocksucker who deserves this. And that my friends. Is how you boil a bastard.

      It adds water. 1:1 isn't enough on its own. Also, traditionally the water ratio changed with the season. The rice would dry in the months after harvest requiring more water.
      I've been making rice for years. Don't wash rice. Use a little less than 2:1 water. Bring to boil. Reduce heat. Steam for 18 minutes with lid on. (Don't lift lid.) Rise is done. The reason to not wash the rice is that the rice company sprinkles the rice with vitamins. Washing washes off the vitamins. Of course the rice turns out gloopy. But I like gloopy rice.

      @@zenothecubone2022 What i mean by the colander is what BBC do with their rice after cooking. I am sorry for not saying that in the first place. I was taught to measure rice and water for 1:1, I was never told that you can measure with finger. (I am asian)
      To explain it in detail. In the BBC food show (they seems to have taken it off from CZcams already), they boil rice with 2 times the water which is too much and after cooking they proceed to use a colander to dry the rice and then rinse it with water because they haven't do it in before cooking the rice.

    An electric stove is less predictable when it comes to these precise steps. Plus my cheap pots leak out too much steam. It just takes a little longer. However, the star anise and cardamom pods really pop out the flavor. I used this recipe with my first time cooking rice. Thank you Chef Ramsay for this wonderful recipe!

    I'm Puertorican and we make the white rice very different. We do use 1 part to 1 1/2. (example: 1 cup rice to 1 1/2 cup water) but first we put 2 tablespoon of oil (canola,corn or vegetable) that is so the rice dont stick to the pan, salt till the water taste a lil salty (not much) and when the water is boiling we put the rice. Leave it open on high till is almost dry and then lower the temp to low, turn it and cover completely till is cooked. But I'm going to try this and see how it taste!

      Thats great. Is that authentic restaurant a 3 star restaurant serving 50 dollar meals? Probably not. Rice in most asian restaurants is plain fluffy white rice. Theres nothing wrong with that - its perfectly fine that way. Doesnt mean it cant be made into something with a more complex flavor. Also, other continents have rice too, not just Asia.

    • @oktaecyoong
      @oktaecyoong Před 9 lety +2

      SuWoopSparrow I understand what you mean :P But what I'm saying is, authentic Chinese rice is eaten the way it is, you don't have to add all this stuff to try and fancy it up. I am only talking about Chinese rice btw, cause I'm not familiar with other cuisines that eat rice. You can see that I did that in my original comment as well

    • @SuWoopSparrow
      @SuWoopSparrow Před 9 lety +3

      No you dont. But its not everyday food. Its special occasion food. Well, in this case, the rice additions are so simply you can easily do it everyday, but my point is that most top of the line cooking can be done simpler and easier. And as I said, other continents have their own rice dishes. To them, a seasoned rice is authentic. Besides, calling plain rice authentic is strange because its just rice. Its like telling someone to not eat a chocolate covered strawberry because a regular plain strawberry is authentic.
