Generally, when steaming rice, the ratio of rice to water is 1: 1 or 1: 1.5, depending on personal preference for rice, but it is recommended that the water should not exceed 1: 1.5 at most. If there is no special water measuring instrument, it can be used in the rice cooker to make the water less than 1 cm.

It doesn't matter if the rice is old. Old rice can also be steamed to refresh the taste of rice. It is after the first three technological processes that we add a small amount of salt or cooking oil to the pot. Remember that cooking oil must be cooked and cooled.

The secret of steamed rice:

1, before steaming rice, be sure to clean the rice cooker so that the steamed rice won't burn.

After washing the pot, we let the water in the pot evaporate, and then add some refined salt or peanut oil to the pot. This can not only avoid the phenomenon of sticking to the pot, but also make the rice more fragrant.

Don't wash rice too many times. The more times we wash, the more nutrients we lose.

4. Before steaming the rice, it is best to soak the rice in water for a period of time to let the rice absorb enough water, so that the steamed rice is more sweet and full.

5. Steamed rice must pay attention to the ratio of rice to water. Generally, we put the rice in the pot first, and then measure the depth of the rice with chopsticks. Then, we add water to make the depth of the water on the rice exactly the same as the depth of the rice.
