RICE COOKING TIPS
How to Cook Rice (White Long-Grained Rice)
Rice portion: 100g of dry rice is approximately 1/2 measuring cup
Rice/water ratio: cook 1 cup of dry raw rice in approximately 1-1.5 cup of water. For softer cooked rice, add a bit more water than the normal ratio. If cooked in a large quantity, the rice/water ratio increases proportionally.
Flavor: rice is normally cooked without seasonings, although a bit of salt or butter could be added to taste.
Pot/cooking portion: For a serving size of 2, use 2 cups of raw rice.
Simmering technique: After the rice is cooked, allow it to simmer for 10 minutes. With this technique, the finished rice will become more tender and will not stick to the pot.
