Perfect Sticky Rice Everytime Recipes

PERFECT STICKY RICE EVERYTIME

Steps:

• Use any cup and fill it up to the brim with rice.
• Then pour the rice into a pot (or your rice-cooker bowl). Rinse the rice in cold water. Then pour out the residual water. Rinse and pour-out the water 4-5 times or until the residual water becomes clear.
• Then re-fill the pot with cold water and let the rice soak for 30 minutes.
• After 30 minutes, pour out the residual water from the pot - try your best not to lose any rice grains as you pour out the water.
• Then use the same cup from Step 1 - and fill it up the brim with water. Carefully pour the water into the pot with the rice (or rice cooker bowl). Now, you should have a 1:1 ratio of water-to-rice in the pot.
• If you have a rice cooker, place the bowl in the cooker and turn it on. Then you're finished.
• If you do not have a rice cooker, simply place a lid on the pot (important!). Then put it on the stove - on high heat and bring it up to a boil.
• When you hear the pot boiling, reduce the heat to a medium. Let it cook for 5 minutes (keep lid on).
• Then reduce heat to a low. Let it cook for 10 more minutes (keep lid on).
• Then turn off the heat. Let it rest for 5 more minutes (keep lid on).
• Total cooking time should be roughly 20-25 minutes.

HOW TO MAKE STICKY RICE (FOOLPROOF METHOD!)

Steps:

• Add the sticky rice to a mixing bowl or other deep container. Fill it with water so that the water level is at least 3 inches above the rice, as the rice will expand when soaking.
• Soak for 6 to 24 hours. Soak it longer if you want your sticky rice to have a softer texture.
• Drain the water (no need to shake off the excess water), and evenly arrange the soaked sticky rice on a heat-proof, rimmed plate or bamboo steamer lined with natural steamer liners or parchment paper.
• Cover and steam for 30-45 minutes. When making larger batch of rice, steam in two batches or steam longer. You can check the rice and increase the steaming time if need be.
• Keep the sticky rice in the steamer or covered to prevent drying out until you serve it or use it in a recipe.

PERFECT STICKY RICE

Steps:

• Pour rice into saucepan, amount will vary depending on how many you are serving.
• Fill the saucepan with water, covering the rice completely.
• The water should be over the rice up to the first knuckle on your finger.
• Set to medium heat, cover slightly leaving a space for the water to escape, and let cook until all the water has evaporated, DO NOT STIR!
• *For chicken or beef flavored rice add ONE bullion cube to the water just before placing on the stove.
