And the finest rice must be supported by the proper method of cookery, in order to do it justice. These are some pointers to getting an ideal outcome:
- Rinse Thoroughly: Washing rice removes excess starch, preventing clumping.
- Measure Water Accurately: The right water-to-rice ratio is key. Too much water makes rice mushy; too little leaves it undercooked.
- Let It Rest: After cooking, let rice rest for 5–10 minutes before serving to allow moisture to distribute evenly.
- Avoid Over-Stirring: Stirring cooked rice can break the grains and affect texture.
It is important to follow these steps to be sure that top quality paddy rice gets the cream out of each recipe.
