How do cook rice so that it's not a mushy mess?

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 26 18:41:58 2018 No.11531355 >>11531351 use less water and cook it less

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 26 18:45:45 2018 No.11531367 >>11531355 So, 1 part rice to 1.5 parts water?

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 26 19:03:20 2018 No.11531418 >>11531369 This guide is pretty much perfect. The thing people have the most tendency to fail is NOT fucking with the rice while it cooks. They always want to take the lid off and stir it. That fucks everything up and your rice will be shit.

>How do cook rice so that it's not a mushy mess?
pilaf style. rinse rice in a mesh strainer until water runs clear. start a pot on medium heat and add some butter. here you can optionally add some minced shallot or onion, your choice, and sweat that down. put the rice in and stir around and let the rice get nice and coated, and keep cooking until it starts getting translucent and smelling really good. add water and some salt and pepper and bring to boil, then reduce heat and simmer covered. cook until all the water is gone. uncover, remove from heat, place a towel over the pot, and put the lid back on and let it sit for little longer. remove lid, towel, and fluff with fork.

>Don't rinse
>Use mom's shitty old dented aluminum caldero
>Saute a whole clove of garlic in a little bit of olive oil until it starts to brown
>Throw in 2 cups of rice and stir until it's coated with the oil
>Add 3 cups water, crank up to high heat
>Reduce to medium heat once it's boiling
>When the water level is even with the rice, add a pinch of salt and stir, then cover the pot and reduce heat to the lowest setting
>Let it simmer for 20 minutes, DO NOT uncover until it's done
Comes out perfect every single time.

>>11531351
Buy a rice cooker and use the instructions that come with it. There is a reason why rice cookers are so popular in Asia, and that is because they are easy to use and they make it more or less impossible to fuck rice up.

>Level the rice in the pot and place your index finger so that it just touches the surface of the rice. Add water until the level comes just up to the crease at the backside of the top of the first knuckle on your index finger.
This is fucking stupid, the ratio you'll get is totally dependent on how much rice you're making and how big the pan is.
How would this possibly work?

>>11533013

I think its some stupid 'old wives' wisdom which basically means 'cover rice by about an inch or so' of water but of course they didn't have such measurements back then and suggesting that much water usually worked so it stuck as instructions being passed down..

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 27 02:15:02 2018 No.11533066 >>11533013 It doesn’t matter idiot. You’re boiling the water away until it’s below surface. At which point you’re just steaming it. Unless you’re using some ludicrous rhombus shaped pot you’ll be fine.

>>11531367
It depends on the type of rice. Some absorb more water than others and cook in different amounts of time. Just google your specific rice type and how much water and cooking time it needs. I was able to nail it the first time doing that and I'm usually retarded when it comes to cooking
