Have you ever missed your rice cooking?
Me too ! But now I know some tips for cooking rice.
Fortunately, to be sure that your rice is cooking successfully, there are a few tips.
Here are five cooking methods, for unmissable rice!
1. In the pan
The most common cooking is to soak the rice in a large volume of water. You can either add the rice once the water boils and cook for 10 minutes, or on the contrary, cover your rice with cold water and bring to a boil. In this case, you wait until all the water is absorbed before draining your rice.
2. In the pan
For pilau rice, just brown the rice in a tablespoon of butter or olive oil. Stir well and then add 1 glass of hot water. Leave to cook for about 15 minutes.
3. Steamed
The following method, widely used for Asian rice, requires a preliminary soaking of one hour. To forget, therefore, if you are in a hurry! Otherwise, take advantage of the steam to cook your rice, which will take about 25 minutes to cook.
4. In the microwave
Nothing prevents you from cooking your rice in the microwave, on the contrary! Provide as much water as rice (for example a glass of rice for a glass of water), rinse your rice well and put everything in a microwave-safe dish. Set your oven to medium power for 15 minutes.
5. Risotto style
Risotto is a cooking method that is often overlooked for lack of time. You have to stay aside and gradually add the cooking water. It is advisable to first brown the rice in oil or butter, then add the broth, ladle by ladle, while waiting for total absorption of the liquid between each.
Savings made
To save energy, remember to cover your water when you bring it to the boil, this will prevent unnecessary heat loss. If your stove is electric, do not hesitate to stop your plate 4 minutes before the end of cooking. The electric hotplates continue to heat even after they have been switched off.
Forget the bouillon cubes, which quickly become expensive. Add a drizzle of olive oil to your cooking water and garnish it with various herbs. The result will be as economical as it is delicious!
And be smart: consider adding a few handfuls of rice to prepare yourself a delicious salad to take to the office the next day! You will thus save the price of a lunch at the restaurant!
