I believe everyone knows that microwave ovens can be used to heat dishes and rice, but I believe many people don't know that microwave ovens can steam rice. So what are the methods and steps for steaming rice in microwave oven? Next, I'll sort out some knowledge about steaming rice in microwave oven for you.

The method of steaming rice in microwave oven is 1 1. Wash the meal first (it is best not to eat more than three people).

2. Pour the rice into a special plastic container for microwave oven (the lid must have air holes, and it is best to use a plastic container with a large yellow lid given by the merchant when buying the microwave oven), and pour water (warm water is best) to soak it for no more than half an hour (the soaked steamed rice is uncooked and easy to cook, saving time, but the soaking time should not be too long, otherwise the steamed rice will have no fragrance).

3. Change the water in which the raw rice is soaked into warm water (same as above, cold water is ok, but it takes longer to steam). Because the rice has been soaked, the water added is slightly less than the water in the rice cooker, which is one centimeter more (no more than 2 centimeters at most). Cover the lid tightly (also cover the inner lid to prevent it from boiling out), put it in the microwave oven, and turn to high heat for 6-8 minutes (depending on the amount of rice).

4. Take out and open the container and stir the rice with a spatula.

5. Cover the lid tightly, and then simmer for 3-5 minutes (if there is less rice, 3 minutes is enough) with medium fire (big fire is also acceptable).

6. Take out the container from the microwave oven. Do not open the lid at this time. Be sure to stew with waste heat for a while (5- 10 minutes), and then open the lid. Ok, the rice is ready.

7. The key to steaming rice in microwave oven should pay attention to three points: first, raw rice must be soaked in advance; Second, after the first period of time, be sure to stir it; Third, after the rice is steamed, don't open the lid immediately, and use the waste heat to stew for a while. Also pay attention to the right amount of water.

8. The rice cooked by microwave oven is shorter, sweeter and more delicious than the rice steamed by rice cooker. If the rice is left, the next time you eat, microwave it for one minute, just like the freshly steamed rice. This is beyond the reach of rice cookers.

The above is a brief introduction of steaming rice in microwave oven. The rice cooked by microwave oven is shorter, sweeter and more delicious than the rice steamed by rice cooker. At the same time, the rice steamed in the microwave oven must be soaked for a longer time, otherwise the steamed rice is not delicious or very sweet and delicious. After the rice is steamed, don't open the lid immediately, but use the waste heat to stew for a while.

When steaming rice in the microwave oven, you must choose a special container for steaming rice. Generally, you will have a steamed rice cooker when you buy it, which is very suitable for steamed rice.

2. How to steam rice in microwave oven-soak rice.

After washing the rice, be sure to soak it. The soaked water can be directly used for steaming rice. The general soaking ratio is 1: 1.5. The rice soaked in this way not only shortens the steaming time, but also has adequate water absorption, moderate hardness and good taste.

3. How to steam rice in a microwave oven-steam rice on a big fire?

Cover the container with soaked rice, put it in the microwave oven for 5 minutes, and then turn to medium heat 10 minute. This makes the rice grains more fully soaked.

4. How to steam rice in the microwave oven-it takes 10 minutes to steam rice.

It's time to steam. Don't take the rice out at once. Let it stay in the microwave oven for about 10 minutes. Although the microwave oven has stopped running at this time, the rice is still heating inside, and more stuffy cooking will make the rice softer and worse.

Second, the microwave oven steamed rice matters needing attention:

1, the rice must be soaked in advance before steaming in the microwave oven, and the time should be controlled between half an hour and one hour, and the soaking time should not be too long or too short.

2. In the first stage of large fire steaming, the rice should be stirred evenly, so that the rice can be heated evenly. If it is too dry, you can add some water appropriately.

Don't open the rice immediately after steaming. You need to let it stew for a few minutes, so it will taste better.

4. Different rice needs different water quantity and absorption degree, so it is suggested to adjust it according to the actual situation.
