Rice Recipe FAQs
What is rice made of?
Rice is a grain that grows in wetland regions. There are different types of rice plants, each of which has its own unique qualities.
How to make egg fried rice?
If your egg fried rice turns out mushy, you're doing it wrong! The most common mistake is using fresh-cooked rice. Use leftover rice, which will hold its shape better.
Can you reheat rice?
Yes, but be very careful. Bacteria can easily thrive on rice grains. Make sure you cool it down properly and reheat it thoroughly.
How much rice per person?
Generally, you want between 50-100g per person. Think about what you're serving with the rice, too. Is it the main event or playing a supporting role with plenty of other tasty bites on the table?
Can you freeze cooked rice?
Yes, but make sure to cool it as quickly as possible. It's best to freeze cooked rice in little bags with one or two portions for easy reheating.
How to cook basmati rice?
Use a 2:1 water-to-rice ratio. That means 200ml of water for 100g of rice. After 10-12 minutes, your rice should be perfectly cooked.
What's the difference between white rice and brown rice?
Brown rice is whole grain, while white rice has been refined. That means brown rice has more fibre, vitamins and minerals, but white rice cooks faster.
How do you store cooked and uncooked rice?
Keep uncooked rice in a sealed bag in the press. Once cooked, cool it quickly and pop it in the fridge. Be sure to reheat it all the way through before serving.
