How to steam rice?
Four ways to make steamed rice fragrant:
Steamed rice with vinegar:
Cooked rice should not be stored for too long, especially in summer, which tends to turn sour. When steaming rice, if you put some vinegar in the proportion of 1.5 kg of rice and 2-3 ml of vinegar, it can make the rice easy to store and prevent rancidity. The steamed rice has no sour taste, but the taste is stronger.
Steamed rice with oil:
Old rice steamed rice is not as delicious as new rice, but if we change the method of steamed rice, old rice will be as delicious as new rice.
The method is: soak it in clear water for two hours, remove it and drain it, then add a proper amount of hot water, a tablespoon of lard or vegetable oil to the pot, boil it on high fire and stew it on low fire for half an hour. If you use a pressure cooker, it will be cooked in 8 minutes.
Salted steamed rice:
This method is only used when the leftovers are steamed again. If you can't eat the remaining rice, you need to steam it again. The re-steamed rice always has a taste, not as delicious as the newly steamed rice. If a small amount of salt water is added to the steamed leftovers, the fishy smell of rice can be removed.
Steamed rice with tea:
Steaming rice with tea can make the rice have good color, fragrance and nutrition, and has the benefits of relieving boredom, cleaning the mouth, dissolving food and providing vitamins.
The method is: take 0.5- 1g of tea according to rice, and use 500- 1000ml of boiling water.
How to make rice taste better?
Every time you cook, drop a little salad oil into the rice cooker after washing rice, then pour rice and water into the rice cooker to soak for 15 minutes, and then plug in the power supply to cook, which saves electricity. The cooked rice is delicious, oily and not crispy.
How to steam rice without sticking to the pan
If you want to steam rice, you should pay attention to two points:
1, be sure to clean the pot, and you can't leave anything sticky on the pot, because these things are the cause of the rice paste.
2. After washing, put a layer of cooking oil in the pot (from the bottom of the pot to the wall of the pot, wherever there is rice), so that the rice not only does not stick to the pot, but also tastes better.
