How to steam rice?

1. It depends on whether the rice is new or old. New rice because of the high water content, to add less water, with a rice cooker, about 1 cm above the rice; slightly older rice should add more water, with a rice cooker, about 2 cm above the rice, so that the steamed rice can be soft and hard moderate.

2, to tell you the simplest, but also the most earthy method are the old generation of people handed down by word of mouth, and do not have to worry about the area of the bottom of the pot, stewed out of the rice and fragrant and soft, that is, "a bowl of rice, two bowls of water".

3, wash rice: wash rice must not be more than 3 times, if more than 3 times, the rice will be a large number of loss, so that steamed rice flavor will be reduced. If it is bought in the supermarket without washing, if it is bought in the farmers' market, no more than two times on the line. Be careful not to scrub hard, otherwise vitamin b1 and gluten will be too much loss.
