No stick, No burn Long Grain White Rice


No more soggy rice for me. Thank you! –Randy Phillips

Yikes! My rice cooker finally broke so I was forced to learn how to cook rice. This isn't your regular shmegular rice recipe though - this is a formular. My go-to rice to water ratio is: How ever many cups of uncooked rice you use, the water amount is + 1.

So, if you plan to cook 4 cups of uncooked rice, you'll need 5 cups of water. Another example is, if you plan to cook 2 1/2 cups of uncooked rice, you'll need 3 1/2 cups of water. This ratio has yet to fail or embarrass me, as the honorable, family proclaimed, "family chef." I grew so confident with this method that I stepped out of my comfort zone and began adding rice to every culinary event I was hired for. Cooking rice was like 1-2-3. This basic rice quickly became a staple side at my job, home and ghost kitchen.
