I like to use dark when I'm making a beef stir fry. Just today I cubed some london broil, coated it with dark soy, sprinkled in some 5 spice and pepper, then after letting it sit for a hour I stir fried with onion and celery. The main thing about doing this is that the soy sauce will burn if you're not careful, but if you do it right it turns into a pleasant rich sauce.

Yeah, I need to get in the habit of doing a proper dark sauce for stir-fry. Problem is, my rice cooker up and died and there's no glass container I have big enough to microwave up enough rice for a full week of meals in one go.

The only time I use the fan oven setting is when I'm baking tofu cubes for a stir fry, I feel confident you could make tarts with the regular oven mode.

I've been cooking a week's worth of brown rice, meat and vegetables of all kinds, then storing and eating individual portions, for months now. I haven't gotten sick once. What bullets am I supposedly dodging?

I know an Instant Pot isn't exactly an autoclave, but this strikes me as a remote possibility? I don't doubt you're right I just feel like it would be far more common wisdom like cooking your chicken / pork through.

This is basically what I do. Cook rice, meat, veg, sauce, bits. Put in containers, bleed off the heat for ten minutes, then fridge/freezer.

The only thing I've gotten food poisoning from this past year was Dominos.

It’s a spore forming bacteria so it can survive some incredibly rough conditions. It’s not a problem if you’re storing it correctly, but if you leave it out for a while and conditions become good those spores will become “gently caress up your day” bacteria relatively quick.

i mean i guess it's possible but if it were more regular people in hawaii would get sick all the time. it seems like a concern for a buffet, not for a household that tosses the leftover rice in the fridge

Someone please give me the wu tang rice secret it either reheats dry and crumbly or it gets mushy and dissolved in the sauce after two days. I just pot the sauce and make new rice in small batches each day but that's more annoying than fridging it all

There’s 63k cases of it a year in the US, it’s not super common but it’s not rare either.

Instant Pot, washed brown jasmine 1:1 with water on 21min Multigrain setting, leave on Keep Warm until you're ready to open the lid (longer wait to drop the pressure means less sticking to the inner pot) and put it into containers with everything, 5-10min on the countertop to cool with the lids on but open.


Maybe die of botulism, I dunno.

It's remote if you follow basic food safety. It happens when people leave their rice in the rice cooker on keep warm for days on end.

If you soak most japonica cultivars, they'll stay edible the next day in the fridge. Cover it with some plastic wrap right up touching the rice for best results.

If you're keeping it in the fridge, make fried rice.

If you want just white rice, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap while it's still hot and fresh from the rice cooker, then straight in the freezer. Microwave directly from frozen, still wrapped. It's not the same as fresh but it's as close as you're going to get.

Absolutely please freeze portions of cooled rice instead of storing in the fridge, if you like your rice soft instead of a dry/mush chimera.

You can get rice cookers at PBTech. You have to order online and have a contact-less pick up.
