Directions
Kittencal’s Perfect Cooked White Rice (Soft, Medium or Firm),This method will create a perfect cooked rice — remember not to stir at anytime while cooking or the rice will stick to the bottom of the pot, and do not cover with a lid until all water is absorbed, for this method use only long grain white rice, please see directions for water amount.,Used this to make some *spectacular* leek+bacon fried rice (along with expected egg & garlic). Because I was using freshly cooked rice (cooked for “firm”), instead of covering for the last 20m, I dumped it out in my clean wok and spread the rice out as thinly as possible to both dry it and cool it (for about 20m); once done drying/cooling, re-potted so I could use the wok to cook. Regardless, otherwise, followed the rice cooking and fried rice cooking instructions nearly to the letter. Excellent recipes! First time I’ve cooked rice, let alone fried rice! So many many thanks and much kudos to the recipe designer!!! :D,Okay, I doubled this recipe and got bad results. The rice didn’t cook all the way through. I cooked 2 cups of raw rice with 3 1/2 c. water for firm rice. The rice, mainly on the top layer stayed partially hard. That made it so that I couldn’t use it in my recipe. I cooked it on an electric flat surfaced stove. Has anyone doubled it with success? I actually made two pans at the same time knowing that more probably wouldn’t have worked. Both failed. (I won’t rate this since I strayed from the recipe and doubled it.)
