I am really bad at making rice and I always gently caress it up. I have an instant pot with a goddamn rice setting and I still gently caress it up. I lived in various east Asian countries for 8 years and I still can't cook rice for poo poo. (But I can roast a chicken in a toaster oven!)

With the 'rona I haven't been swinging by Kroger for sushi and fried chicken, so I figured I'd lift the roommate's spirits with some fried chicken. I've succeeded at it before, but not this time.

On the other hand I avoid baking, because I can't bake anything that's not from a box. I don't know what I expected to happen this time :shrug:

Just cook it in a pot. Instant pot just sucks at making rice no matter which recipe that swears their ratio will work. Every time I've tried, following the recipes to the letter, it always ends up sticking to the pot and half ends up cooked, half ends up crunchy. Regular pot takes longer but at least it works.

I've made instant pot rice for a few years now, never has it been crunch, it doesn't stick to the bottom. It's one button and it works great. I've used rice cookers in the past and just in a pot, instant pot makes great rice, not sure how you've not had this result.

If you're cooking rice with any regularity there's no reason not to have a rice cooker. Even your simplest $20 Walmart model does the job perfectly well.

For Japanese style with short grain Japonica rice:

Measure out rice by volume.
Wash rice in a sieve.
Let the rice sit in the sieve and dry out a bit, half an hour or so. Alternately, if you want to make rice that will stay soft when cold for something like onigiri, soak instead of drying. Either works fine.
Place rice in rice cooker.
Salt rice. Get horrified looks from anyone in East Asia but they are wrong, salt all foods appropriately including rice.
Add water. I always go for roughly 1.1 times the rice volume, but every bag of rice is different and you may need to adjust. So for 400 ml of rice, ~440 ml of water. You do not need to be super precise.
Swirl to dissolve your salt.
Turn on rice cooker and go do something else.
Voila, good rice.

Stop that immediately. Wash it like a normal person in a bowl of water and change the water till it runs mostly clear. Using most meshes will bust up the grains real bad. Also, don't wash enriched rice. Don't buy it if you can avoid it in general. You'll wash all the nutrient powder they sprinkle it with after bleaching.

Dunno, I'm not sure how you'd even break rice while washing it. You'd really have to be grinding it against something hard for some reason.

I have a purpose built rice washing/draining bowl I picked up in Glorious Nippon but there's no need for such things. You can just use a bowl too but I find it very annoying to drain the water out without spilling rice so I don't bother.

It's me, the rice snob. Rinsing your rice is mostly to get rid of the starches the normally make it sticky. When you break rice grains, you release more starch from the kernel and undo your work. It's not a huge deal, but if you caveman it hard enough there will be a noticable difference in stickiness.

Your life and your quest end here.


I put water in a saucepan and put it on the stove, then when it's hot I put rice in it. When the rice is cooked I tip it through a strainer to get rid of the extra water. This works perfectly 100% of the time and requires no specialised tools or measuring.

you can't make rice the way east asian peeps like it this way. southeast asian peeps, sure. there is also a strong difference between varietals of rice in how this is viable

this finickiness was why rice steamed was actually developed as a dish after rice cakes, chronologically

I've never had a problem since I started rinsing my rice before cooking

if it was a sticky lump then sure

rice varies like 5x in amount of starch expressed during cooking. too much, its more of a rice like lump

really best bet is buy a midrange zojirushi, read the fuckin manual and follow it exactly. and don't forget to buy the right kind for your needs

if you have time and just generically want a starch, not rice specifically, you can make like the nth century bc chinese peeps and make rice cakes instead. do soak the rice overnight for that one, that's important
