Tips

  • โ€ขAlways rinse your rice very well. This removes all debris as well as excess starch. Rinse the rice until the water runs completely clear.
  • โ€ขAfter you have drained the cooked rice, leaving it to sit for 5 minutes with lid on allows it to steam through.
  • โ€ขWhen adding butter to the rice make sure to mix thoroughly and get rid of any lumps.
