have been eating rice for over 65 years, and taught to cook rice for dinner since I was 6, growing up as a latchkey kid with my single mom to have rice ready when she got home from work. No magic technique, just follow a few simple rules, wash a few times, fill the water to one palm thickness, boil then simmer and turn off the stove at 15 minutes, never lift the lid and wait for mom to get home with meats and vegetables. One big note to self - do not leave the house to play ball with friends until the rice is done and the stove is off or will be greeted by one pissed off mom and lots of scrubbing a burned out pot.

Dear Chef Sakaeda: Until I saw your video, I never had medium-grain rice turn out other than gloppy/hard-stuck to the pot. Just now, I made a pot of [Goya brand] medium-grain rice, following your directions. The package said not to rinse it because of nutrient loss, so I compromised and rinsed it the way you did, but only twice, and did not do a final rinse in a sieve. Cooked it the way you did. OMG - perfect, mildly-sticky rice, even better than that of any Oriental restaurants! Thank you, thank you!

I use aged basmati rice. 1 cup rice, 2 cups water. I wash it and soak it for at least 15 minutes. I bring to a boil about 3 cups of water in a big pot and set the rice container in it. Lid it and cook it on medium low heat for 20 minutes. Perfect every time.

I found these instructions on the packet of Premium Jasmine Rice I bought years ago which works for me: 1) Rinse rice. 2) For every one measure of rice add 1& half measures of boiling water. 3) Make sure the level of rice is even by gently shaking the pot you are cooking the rice in. 4) Cook on medium heat until holes appear on the surface of the rice. 5) Reduce heat to low. You may give the rice a quick stir if you like. Cover the pot & let steam for about 5minutes. 6) Turn the heat down until just before it is off. 7) Replace the pot lid & let rest for another 5 minutes. 8) Your fluffy white Jasmine rice is done. Enjoy. This method is suitable for cooking all types of rice.

Man, never knew people are so... diverse in their opinion in how to prepare rice. Might as well add my 2 cents in this: in my country (Philippines), we cook rice as follows: 1) Measure rice to be cooked. Good if you have a measuring cup or a pot that has measurements marked inside the pot. You can even eyeball it. You can use any pot: metal, clay, even large bamboo sections can be used. 2) Wash the rice. Rule of thumb, wash it with clean water until the washing is clear. What you do with the rice washings is up to you but from what I read (like those from Maria Y. Oroza, food scientist and inventor of banana ketchup and other food wonders) you can use rice washings for anything from soups and stews to desserts. 3) Add water to the washed rice. This is where debate about water-to-rice ratio is heavy, but in my country how much water to add to the rice for cooking is very much an exercise of trial and error; not all rice are the same, some require more water to cook (or else it becomes a hard puck when cooked, oftentimes a sign of poor quality rice), some require less water (becomes porridge when cooked). This is where the expertise of rice dealers comes into play as they can tell you which rice has what qualities you look for and recommend you this sort of rice variety. Everyone in my country knows not to use sticky glutinous rice beyond being used as desserts (kakanin) as cooking such is far more difficult and inedible. Do we soak the rice for 30 minutes like the Japanese? No, I personally consider it a waste of time that adds nothing to the rice. Do we salt the water before cooking? It never crossed my mind personally, rice is supposed to taste like rice: not tasteless or chemical-y. I mean you can cook the rice in a broth but that is somethibg reserved for special occassions not a regular meal. Note: if you have no measuring cup at hand, I use the method my father showed me when he cooks rice (he never uses a measuring cup when he cooks rice): add enough water to the level of the first joint of your middle finger when you dip it into the pot. Don't dig into the rice level when doing this, only place it on the surface of the rice level. 4) Cook the rice. If you have a rice cooker then good, you can just pop it in there, press the tab and wait until it goes warm (note: the "rice cooker" in this context is not those fancy things the Japanese use but those cheap and simple ones one can buy from PRChina). Just remember to actually press the tab down to "cook" as the "warm" setting just evaporates the water from the pot leaving it undercooked and recooking it makes it edible but tasteless. If cooking in an open flame (be it stove or brazier), I follow some simple rules of thumb: A. Heat pot until it boils the water off. When there is no water in the pot, lower heat down and let it cook via the steam inside the pot. My method of knowing if the rice is cooked is by touch: if rice is sticky it's not cooked, if rice is not sticky it's cooked. However, limit the lifting of the pot to check on the rice because it lets out the steam, making the finished rice drier, harder, and slightly burnt. A pot with a glass lid is optimal in this so you can see the rice being cooked without needing to open it often to check if it's cooked. B. Really keep an eye on the rice cooking process. The average cooming time for rice ia roughly 30 minutes (less than 10 minuties for boiling and the remaining 20 minutes for cooking the rice in lower heat). Rice WILL get burnt if left for too long. Keep an eye on the pot even when it boils because it will spill over.

Yep same here in Indonesia, and i assume all the SEA country too. The prep on this video is kinda overkill and waste of time, since most people couldn't even tell the difference on the finished product. I personally would just use a USD10 rice cooker, wash and rinse the rice twice inside its proprietary bowl, add clean water until it level on my finger joint, press the cook button. Literally easy as 1.2.3.

I concur on this method. Just a small variation for me is after the water has been dried off, I put the lid and set a timer for 8 mins. It's a lot safer not to over do it and undercook it so 8 min.is ideal to me. After that fire off and let it rest for another 8 and it's done. Unlike the Japanese that like to fluff the rice most Asians don't. That includes me..

Rice is one of the hardest things to cook well consistently. But generally speaking, his method is pretty foolproof. Add rice and water to a pot, bring to a boil, reduce heat and let simmer with lid on for like 20 min if cooking standard white rice, then take off the heat and let rest for another 15-20 min. The trick really is to know what type of rice you are using, so you can know how much water to add and how long to simmer it for. E.g. brown rice is a completely different method to short grain white rice.

Why would the ratio water:rice change when you are cooking more rice? Is that because you are looking at volume instead of weight? Can one grain of rice absorb less water when it has a lot of friends? Or does it have to do with a longer cook time and more loss of water vapor when cooking small batches? Wouldn't then the type of pan matter more? So many questions...

Very similar to how I do mine, only I don't wash it and I never bring it to the boil with the lid off, it takes twice as long to boil and you lose a little of the water due to evaporation. Also, there's really no need to flatten the rice out, it will naturally level itself out as it cooks.

Video title should specify Japanese or short grain white rice which would be stickier than many are used to.

Wow what a diversity. In my country the rice shouldn't stick. Each grain should be long and separate. If the grains are sticking together that means the cook has messed up😅

I don’t know about fluffy but all I could see was a bowl of soggy rice. If I am cooking just for myself, I steam one cup of rice with a bit of water instead of boiling.

this type of rice is what I called as no fun rice. If you give this rice to a person who is first time eating rice, he will hate rice forever. I know it is healthier as in lower sugar content, but it is the exact reason it is tasteless. Forced myself eating brown rice and I hate myself for it.
