FLUFFY WHITE RICE



Fluffy White Rice image

White rice like the rice served at a good Chinese restaurant. Two variations are given, one fluffy version for eating with foods like stir frys, and another for making fried rice. I have met so many people who marvel at perfect white rice. It's very easy to make. Here's how...

Categories     Long Grain Rice

Time 21m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 cup long grain white rice
1 2/3 cups water for fluffier rice or 1 1/2 cups water for firmer rice suitable for making fried rice

Steps:

  • You will need a small pot with a lid. A capacity of 1 to 3 quarts is good.
  • Bring the water to a strong boil at highest temperature.
  • Add the rice to the boiling water. Swirl the rice once with a spoon so that it covers the bottom of the pot uniformly.
  • Watch the rice boil until you see the bubbles form a pock-marked pattern with its vigorous boiling. This takes 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Lower the heat to simmer. About 2.5 out of 10 on the dial is about right on my stove. Your stove may need to be set slightly higher or lower. You want the heat to be high enough so that steam is always being formed in the pot, but not so hot that the rice scorches on the bottom of the pot.
  • When the boiling dies down a bit, cover the pot and set the timer to 20 minutes.
  • Remove the lid of the pot, and your rice is done. For your first batch, test the rice with a fork and give it a taste test. It should be fluffy and tender.
  • (The texture of fried rice benefits from a firmer rice kernel. Use 1 1/2 cups of water instead of 1 2/3 cups of water to achieve this texture. When it is done, leave the lid off the pot and allow the rice to cool. Then use the cooled rice in your fried rice recipe. The cooling is optional.).

WHITE RICE RECIPE BY TASTY



White Rice Recipe by Tasty image

Getting fluffy, fully-cooked white rice without burning the bottom isn't hard, but there are a few steps to make the process a little easier. You'll always want to rinse white rice in a sieve until the water is clear to remove excess starch that can make the rice gummy and unevenly cooked. You should also let the rice steam for five minutes before you fluff with a fork, so that the rice doesn't dry out or get clumpy. Enjoy your now-perfect rice!

PERFECT WHITE RICE

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Pasta and Grains     Rice Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 cup long-grain white rice
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Bring 1 1/2 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in rice and salt and return to a boil over medium-high heat.
  • Reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook until rice is tender and has absorbed all the liquid, 16 to 18 minutes (check only toward the end of cooking time). The rice should be studded with craters, or steam holes, when it is ready.
  • Remove from heat and let steam, covered, for 10 minutes. Then fluff with a fork and serve.

PERFECT WHITE RICE



Perfect White Rice image

It is possible to make perfectly fluffy white rice on the stovetop. Sauteing the rice first helps keep the rice grains separate. Keeping the pot covered for the entire cooking time traps the steam which is necessary for properly cooking the rice, and is very important. The last 5 minutes off the heat allow the rice to finish in the residual steam, without burning the bottom.
