How To Cook Jasmine Rice?

Introduction
Jasmine rice is a bowl of delicately fragrant rice popular across Asian Countries. It's closely connected with Thai cuisine, but it is used to accompany anything from Thai sauteed chicken to Chilli Basil Stir Fry, Satay Skewers, and a variety of Thai stews.

While cooked, fragrant long-grain Thai Jasmine Rice emits a pleasant and appealing scent. It is soft, white, and fluffy after cooked, making it great for boosting the overall flavour of any meal and allowing for a more enjoyable experience at any time. This gluten-free rice is also Non-GMO Project Verified, suited for vegan and vegetarian diets, and devoid of MSG and other artificial preservatives.


Learning to Cook the Jasmine Rice
Typical people are unaware that jasmine rice is smoother than most rice, which means you'll have less water to boil it so it's light and cuddly on the exterior rather than sticky.

Do you want to enjoy the fluffiness and softness of jasmine rice? Let us learn how to cook the jasmine rice now:

What is the Right Quantity for the Jasmine Rice?
Your entire life has been spent making Jasmine Rice incorrectly! Most instructions get it incorrect because jasmine rice is finer compared to the rest, therefore you need Reduced water than normal white rice to make it fluff rather than sticky. For every 1 cup of rice noodles, use just 1 1/4 cup freshwater (the guideline for rice is 1 1/2 cup water to 1 cup rice).

You Do Not Need to Soak the Jasmine Rice
I'm debunking a long-held belief that washing the rice is required for fluffy rice. It certainly isn't! I've made a lot of rice in my time, so I can attest to this.

Here's what I've learned thus far:

1. No rinsing required — if you are using 1 1/4 cup of hot water for 6 ounces of jasmine rice, your rice will be soft and cuddly even if you don't rinse it.
   
   2. To account for the additional water that stays in the rice after rinsing, decrease the water by 2 tablespoons (ie 1 1/4 cups liquid minus 2 tbsp).
   
   3. You must lower the quantity of water by 1/4 cup if you wash AND soak for 60 minutes (eg 1 1/4 gallons less 3 teaspoons).
   
   

1. RAPID SIMMER – Combine water and grains in a pan and put to a fast simmer over high temperature. The entire surface should be undulating, with bubble borders and white froth;
2. Covering and reduce to Down – Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for eight minutes. Do not open the lid!
3. Allow the rice to finish boiling for 10 minutes. The grain will be moist and somewhat firm in the centre if you neglect this step.
   
   Fluffy! Use a slotted spoon or a rice spatula to prevent the particles from splitting apart.
