Burnt Rice...IT STINKS

[Diyisfun]

Had a pan of boiling water, went to tip the rice in & I missed the pan.
The rice caught fire what a stink. Not to mention the mess.

LOL how do you miss a pan? I could understand if you were pouring say a bag of rice into an egg cup
FYI boil in the bacg is much easier, microwave rice easier still but IMO doesnt taste as good.

micro rice tends to stick together a bit, a bit clumpy.

Well I dropped a piece of dry pasta onto the hob the other day and that stank too - urgh!!

Worth it if you like rice...
Get the water content right - for your taste then you cannot go wrong with a rice cooker.

My method is easy-peasy, but you need basmati.

Put a smidge of oil in the pan, add a mugful of rice nice & hot. Add a mug & a third of boiling water. Lid on heat right down (works best on gas), and cook for 10m...

NICE!!

If you really want to create a stink, throw bread on the barbecue when you finished using it then run inside and close all the windows and doors.

Your neighbours will love you!

The world changes little ....

...What is basmati rice?

With its lyrical provenance, grown only in designated areas of India and Pakistan, in the foothills of the Himalayas and watered by rivers of their melting snow, this 'prince of rice' is highly prized and distinctively flavoured. It is grown slowly, cropped only once a year and harvested by hand. Our parents may have put canned pineapple in their curries but we are a generation enthralled by authentic Asian cooking and ingredients. The aromatic basmati has thus become a kitchen staple, accounting for 37 per cent of all the rice sold in the UK. Since it is also more expensive than other long-grain rice, the promise of profit has also gone hand in hand with the temptation to indulge in, shall we say, a spot of mis-labelling. In 2004, the Food Standards Agency published the results of DNA tests on 363 samples, 17 per cent of which were found to have a non-basmati content of over 20 per cent, the maximum that was then allowed under the industry code of practice, while 9 per cent of samples had a non-basmati content higher than 60 per cent....

...Tilda, the largest supplier, only offers 'pure-line' basmati, bought in small quantities from traditional farmers, and every batch is stringently DNA-tested to check its authenticity...

Pour water onto the hot charcoal lumps this stops any smells occuring.
