Vent: I was rinsing my rice like an idiot for 2 years
I always thought rinsing rice until the water ran clear was the move, but last Tuesday my neighbor Rosa in El Paso watched me do it and just shook her head. She said I was washing away the starch that makes it stick together, and that a quick 10 second rinse is all you need for most dishes. I tried it her way that night and my rice came out way better, so what else am I messing up in the kitchen?
Rosa just saved you two years of bland rice. The trick is sticking your finger in the water to measure, one knuckle above the rice line, and letting it sit for 15 minutes before you cook. What else is Rosa telling you to fix?
