Help with gummy rice
Posted by AlmaDawg on 3/28/15 at 8:21 pm00
I need to figure out how to make my rice less gummy. Sometimes it is worse than others. Do I need to wash my rice?
I cooked this in some pork stock per usual and it is gummy as hell. [/URL][/img]

^^^ CRUCIAL when cooking with something that tends to make your water oily... like pork. It's an easy fix, though.

Cooked too long with too much liquid.

I use rice cooker 1:1 ratio

Sometimes you can save gummy rice by putting an 1/8 th cup of warm olive oil in it and stirring like a mad man.

I swear to God I don't want to be an a-hole, but I cannot for the life of me understand why people have trouble cooking rice. It has to be one of the easiest things in the book.

Regular long grain rice is easy
I still have trouble with jasmine rice.

I learned to cook rice from my El Salvadorian friend's mother.
1.5:1 ratio water to rice
pre-measure water and set aside. put the rice in the pot you intend on cooking it in and cover with water. Agitate the rice with your hand and then drain completely. repeat this step two to three more times. After final rinse add the pre-measured water and heat rice and water on high until water begins to boil. stir contents, put the lid on, and lower the flame to maintain a slow simmer. 20 minutes later remove pot from heat and let stand (still covered) 10 more minutes. remove lid, fluff with a fork and serve. I know 30 minutes seems like a ling time to cook rice but I have been cooking rice with this method for over 20 years now and it has never failed.

This. Cup of water per 3/4 cup of rice in rice cooker. Easy

The easiest way to make good rice is to cook it like you would spaghetti noodles. 4 cups of water...1 cup of rice...uncovered until it gets to the consistency you want. According to an earlier post that's 18 minutes.
Drain in a collender.
