finger-knuckle technique
Cooking Rice Tricks

The so called finger-Knuckle method - Add the water until it covers your knuckles hand is flat on the rice.

Finger-Knuckle Method 2
Cooking Rice Tricks


Dip your Fingers on top of the rice (not bottom) up to the first line of your middle finger.

Try this method, if it works-no need to buy an electric rice cooker.

Stove Top Method:
1. Wash or rinse rice in cold water about 3-4 times. Discard water.
2. In a pan mix rice with amount of water desired.
3. Close lid of your pan.
4. Boil the rice on med-high heat (The water gets absorbed into the rice and the rice expands).
5. Once its boiling, stir the rice and close the lid and turn the heat down to low for about 5 minutes.
6. While simmering the water gets absorbed into the rice or evaporates, do not open the lid at this point. When the water has nearly disappeared(water will stop spilling) turn the heat off. Let the rice sit for 5 minutes or more with the lid on.


Hey guys this is a challenge!!! Let me know if you succeed.

NOTE: Do not soak rice before cooking, this method is only applied to Stcky Rice or Glutinous Rice for sweet desserts or other rice with meat recipes.
There is a microwave rice cooker but I seldom use this because it makes my microwave messy.
