staple across the globe yet a lot of
people are not comfortable making the
perfect rice today let's see how to cook
the perfect rice by using two methods
the absorption method and the training
method let's begin
[Music]
before making rice it's always important
to check the quality of rice here I'm
taking a cup full of rice and yeah you
need to first begin to pick this and
show that there is no particle of wood
or husk or Hull or anything of that
matter the next thing is to wash this
well we need to wash this at least twice
thrice over in clean room temperature
water if you allow this water to settle
for just around 10 to 15 seconds you
will realize that you will see a lot of
things floating on the surface of the
water let's drain this water in another
Bowl and similarly wash the grains of
rice like I said at least three times
the first one is to remove the
superficial dust and grain and the next
one is to ensure that the grain of rice
kind of gets nice and clean after this
stage you can actually choose two ways
of doing
you could either soak the rice for some
time somewhere around 15 to 20 minutes
in cold water or you can directly begin
the way I prefer the next step is to
transfer this clean and washed rice in a
deep container now comes the real trick
or the formula for every cup of rice
that you take you need to ensure that
the water is twice the quantity of the
rice
[Music]
you need to begin with water at room
temperature turn the flame on and now is
the time to salt the water well this is
an optional step I know some homes we do
not use salt while boiling rice but in
our homes we follow a very simple method
and that is giving this a quick stir and
tasting the water the water needs to
taste like seawater one quick check well
I think that's perfect
allow this water to boil on high flame
for a minimum of eight minutes and then
we'll take it from there you need to
stir the rice just once and we have done
that six minutes back if you come a
little closer and see the water is
bubbling and just kind of settling at
the same time this is the time the flame
needs to be constantly on high allow
another two minutes trust me
patience here is the virtue for the most
perfect rice after eight minutes when
you see that the water has completely
settled you need to cover this and lower
the flame and continue cooking for
further three minutes in this method of
cooking rice which is cooking rice by
absorption method you will realize and
notice that you will find a lot of
condensation spots on the lid of the pan
if you need to avoid this in case you
are worried that the rice may get
overcooked just use a kitchen towel and
then keep the lid what would happen is
the kitchen towel will absorb all the
moisture lucknow a biryani of pulao is
generally made that way it's been eleven
minutes let's turn the flame off and
allow this to subside nice and well do
not hasten up opening this otherwise you
will end up releasing the steam that is
mandatory in getting this rice nice and
fluffy let's keep this aside and move on
to the next method of making rice and
that is rice by draining method for this
I have already kept a cauldron of water
to boil
well there are various differences in
the two methods that's absorption and
draining the first and the most
important difference is that the both
start with different temperatures of
water the absorption method of course
starts with water at room temperature
the draining method rice begins with
water which is already on boil to this
let's add in some salt which is of
course to flavor the water and the rice
subsequently
another very important difference here
is the ratio and proportion of water to
rice yeah if it was double the quantity
here it's at least five times the
quantity of rice so basically for every
cup of rice you need to take at least
five times water apart from that the
method of cleaning the rice and washing
the rice remains the same let's transfer
the washed rice into this cauldron of
boiling water very carefully without
scalding yourself allow the rice now to
boil on high flame for a minimum of
eight to nine minutes but ensure that
you stir it once twice over so that the
rice grains do not clump to each other
here's a trick for the ones who prefer
the rice nice and bright in color now
for that you need to add in some acid so
that it kind of gets bleached for that
I'm using choose of a wedge of lemon
[Music]
another completely optional step in this
case is addition of just a teaspoon of
vegetable oil to ensure that the rice is
nice and separated the rice is cooked
and ready with this off force of flame
and this needs to be drained immediately
this water that has been collected at
the bottom of course you do not need to
throw that you can cool that down
completely use that to need a door you
can cool it down use it to water plants
or you can also ferment this and make a
wonderful beverage with this your rice
cook by absorption method and draining
method are both right here in front of
you I hope I have done justice and
trained you in making or cooking rice
just like a pro so no more overcooked
rice undercooked rice dry rice or sluggy
