There are many different ways to cook rice. Some are better than others. Check out our advice for great tasting rice every time.

Rice-cooker-cooking

Use a good rice cooker

Whilst not essential a good rice cooker with fuzzy logic technology does more than simply boil the rice. It steams, braises and other cooking techniques to achieve optimal taste, texture and aroma.

Use a saucepan but do it right

The most common method of cooking rice is the boiling method in a saucepan. Often a lot of nutrients are lost in this method but if the process involves some steaming then the results can be satisfactory

Rice-bowl

Use good quality rice

Use a good quality grain which doesn't have many broken grains. If using a rice cooker choose the right function for the rice you are cooking. Do not use pre-cooked rice.

Rice-wash

Wash your rice if needed

Not all rice needs washing but if your rice is particularly starchy then run through cold water using a sieve or similar until the water runs more clear.

Rice-measurement

Use the right amount of water

Different rice types require different amounts of water. This amount is also determined by the amount of rice you are cooking. You can either use rice cooker bowl level lines to assist with this or try work out the ratio of rice to water yourself.

Rice-grains

Leave to rest

When finished cooking in either a pan or a rice cooker remove the cover, gently stir the rice to release excess moisture and leave it to stand for a few minutes. Leaving on keep warm in a rice cooker with the lid shut after stirring works best.
