Rice is such a common food, in fact, it\u2019s the most consumed item of food in the world. Why is it then, for such a common ingredient, that there is so much mystery around how it is made? Indeed, mastering how to make perfect Steamed Rice is a skill that everyone must have in the kitchen. Luckily for you all, we\u2019re here to share our secrets on how to master cooking this must-have dish for any home cooked repertoire<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"#jump-here\">Jump to Recipe<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You don\u2019t need anything fancy to perfect homemade Steamed Rice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are so many gadgets and pieces of equipment available out there these days that promise \u2018fool proof\u2019 perfect Steamed Rice every time. From those expensive electric Rice Cookers to simple microwaveable versions, there seems to be an endless supply of devices available to home cooks to master this dish<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The truth of the matter is, while you could use these gadgets to get some great Steamed Rice, they are simply not needed. Why waste money on an expensive piece of cooking equipment that simply is not needed? Furthermore, to take a leaf out of Alton Browns book, you should never buy a single use utensil in the kitchen! Only stock your kitchen with utensils and gadgets that have multiple use<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, a rice cooker is simply not a piece of equipment you need in the kitchen. They are cumbersome, bulky, sometimes very expensive, and yield the same result that you can achieve by simply using an everyday saucepan.

Rice needs to absorb Water to turn light and fluffy and, ultimately, edible! The ratio of Water to Rice is a critical step, as too much Water will result in a gluggy, soupy texture. Too little Water and the Rice will be dry, crunchy, and not cooked<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ratio of Rice to Water you must always use is 1 to 1 \u00bd. So, for 1 cup of Rice, you need to use 1 \u00bd cups of Water. For 2 cups of Rice, you would use 3 cups of Water, etc. This quantity can be scaled up or down accordingly, and the ratios always stay the same<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may have seen some advice suggesting that you don\u2019t need to measure the amount of water, but to add Rice into a pan, then place your finger into the middle of the pan. Fill the pan with water up until your knuckle and it is suggested this will work every time. I can guarantee you that this is not the case! If you\u2019re using a wide pan, you\u2019re going to have way too much water. A narrow pan, too little water<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, ignore all of these \u2018recommendations\u2019 and stick to the ratio. 1 cup of Rice to 1 \u00bd cups of Water. It\u2019s going to work every time, regardless of what sized Saucepan you are cooking with<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Boiling your Water before combining in with the Rice<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is an important step as it will influence the cooking time required for the Rice. If you add cold or room temperature water to the Rice you\u2019re going to need to bring it to a boil, which will add 5 \u2013 10 minutes to the cooking time. Avoid all that and boil the Water in the kettle, then pour your desired amount into a measuring cup<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is primarily a time saving step, you can always add regular room temperature water to the Rice in the Saucepan, it\u2019ll just take more time. The objective is to get the water boiling with the Rice before you move onto the next step<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Combine the Boiling Water and Rice in the Saucepan, then drop the heat to a Simmer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once that boiling Water has been added to the Rice it\u2019s going to continue to boil in the Saucepan. At this point you can give the Rice a little bit of a stir to break up some of the clumps of Rice that will form. This isn\u2019t necessary, but can help with getting less pieces sticking together once it\u2019s cooked<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the Boiling Water is added, you need to cover the Saucepan with a lid and then drop the heat down to a low simmer immediately. The Saucepan will naturally be quite hot, so you\u2019ll find that it may continue to boil down for a minute or so even after you\u2019ve dropped the heat. This is totally fine; the key is to just get a gentle simmer going<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Perfect-Steamed-Rice-5-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"How to make Perfect Steamed Rice on plate\" class=\"wp-image-4766\" style=\"width:795px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Perfect-Steamed-Rice-5-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Perfect-Steamed-Rice-5-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Perfect-Steamed-Rice-5-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Perfect-Steamed-Rice-5-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Perfect-Steamed-Rice-5-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Perfect-Steamed-Rice-5-530x530.jpg 530w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Perfect-Steamed-Rice-5-750x750.jpg 750w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Perfect-Steamed-Rice-5-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Perfect-Steamed-Rice-5.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Follow this recipe on how to make Perfect Steamed Rice for a beautiful result such as this!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-5483265561586305\"\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-5483265561586305\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"7869471218\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Simmer for 10 minutes, then turn off the heat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Allow the Rice and Water to simmer away until all the Rice has absorbed. This is a lot easier to do if you\u2019ve got a Saucepan lid that is clear, so you can see how it is progressing. Once all of the Water has been absorbed by the Rice, turn off the heat. However, keep the lid on!<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Water will have absorbed, but we still need to allow some time for the Rice to fully cook through. So, this is the \u2018cooking\u2019 step for how to make perfect Steamed Rice. The Simmering stage should take 10 minutes which is when you turn off the heat. Keep the lid on and leave the pan for a further 10 minutes until the Rice is perfectly cooked<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">That\u2019s it! You\u2019ve now got perfectly Steamed Rice to enjoy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No more steps are required. After the 10 minutes with the lid on but no heat, the Rice will be fully cooked through and lovely and fluffy. Remove the lid and give the rice a stir around with a wooden spoon. This final step is called \u2018fluffing the rice\u2019 and it\u2019s just allowing air to get in between the Rice grains and help to fluff it up<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another step that many people forget to do is to season the Rice. Just like any other ingredient, Rice needs seasoning to bring out it\u2019s full, natural flavor. So, once you\u2019ve fluffed the rice, add a bit of Salt to season the Rice and give it a taste before serving. Seasoning will vary depending on your palate, but we recommend about \u00bd tsp. for every 1 cup of Rice used<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Pepperoni-Fried-Rice-5-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Pepperoni Fried Rice\" class=\"wp-image-4655\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1;width:766px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Pepperoni-Fried-Rice-5-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Pepperoni-Fried-Rice-5-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Pepperoni-Fried-Rice-5-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Pepperoni-Fried-Rice-5-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Pepperoni-Fried-Rice-5-530x530.jpg 530w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Pepperoni-Fried-Rice-5-750x750.jpg 750w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Pepperoni-Fried-Rice-5-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/dinnertimesomewhere.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Pepperoni-Fried-Rice-5.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What kind of Rice does this recipe work with?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The best news is the recipe doesn\u2019t chance if you are using different varieties of Rice!
