Easy stove top fluffy rice every time:
1 cup rice unrinsed, 1.5 cup water. Add to cold pot bring to boil lid off. Simmer on low 12 mins with the lid on. Turn heat off wait 10 mins with lid on (do not take off).
Fluff with fork.
Fluffy
Every time
Major fluff.
UNRINSED? Pure savagery
We have pretty good grown rice here in Australia. No need to rinse.
I think it's more about getting rid of some the starchy powdery stuff on the outside that makes it gluggy - unless you want that like in risotto
I had my doubts too.
unrinsed is the way
I'm not going to downvote you... But I certainly won't upvote you
I'm willing to put my potato pitchfork aside and join forces with you on this one too 🤝 unrinsed rice... there's gotta be something wrong with the rice. Or the person. For real
woooow
🤷♂️you brought this on yourself
WOOOOOOW
brütal haha
Unrinsed? You’re making all the Asian ancestors cry
Fully agree with this. Very good method.
You seem like a pretty knowledgeable person. I can't really believe you would be supporting this non-rinsing nonsense (aside from risotto, exclusively). Can you please help me talk some sense into the heathens?
I do it similarly but I wash the rice very well, and when it's cooked and I turn it off I place a dry teatowel between the pot and the lid to absorb the steam for 10 minutes. Awesome rice every single time.
