First: hot water. Usually, most people steam rice directly with cold water, but if you steam rice with hot water, you will know that the steamed rice tastes softer and more delicious, and the time of steaming rice with hot water will be shortened, and the nutrition will be richer than that of steaming rice with cold water.
Second: vinegar. Vinegar is a substance that volatilizes when heated. When vinegar volatilizes, it will also accelerate the hydrolysis of starch in rice, making steamed rice soft and delicious and not easy to deteriorate. Summer is especially suitable.
When steaming rice with vinegar, you must pay attention to the good proportion. About 1 kg of rice and 1 ml of vinegar are enough. This proportion of vinegar will not be sour, but it can make the rice fragrant, soft and delicious, with distinct particles. Steamed rice doesn't stick to the pot easily.
Third: oil. Put a spoonful of lard or cooking oil in steamed rice to achieve this goal. The cooked rice is fragrant and soft, which tastes much better than nothing, and the rice has distinct layers and is not easy to paste. The effect is similar to vinegar.
Friends who don't like oil don't have to worry, because steamed rice is not greasy, but more delicious.
Fourth: steam overnight meals. Many people like to steam rice more than once, but rice will taste after being left overnight. At this time, adding a small amount of salt water can solve it. The method is to pour a little salt water into the rice and steam it together. Steamed rice is as delicious as newly steamed rice.
After reading these tips, do you feel benefited a lot? Although you only add a little common seasoning at home, the steamed rice is very different from the previous steamed rice in taste and nutrition, and the taste will rise many steps.
