This rice is my fucking baby and it's so fucking perfect and it belongs on a Gerber ad. People told me about measuring the water ratio with my finger but I always thought to myself 'oh, I'll just go with what the rice cooker says, I'm sure it's correct'.
For about 8 years, my rice has come out a gloopy mess and I'd always justify it to myself, like 'oh, my rice sucks because of the altitude' because I live on the 3red fuckin floor lmao.
My message to everyone who's had to wade through the trials and logical contradictions of cooking on their own is that the instructions are fucking bullshit, the finger method is tried and true and IT WORKS! Even if you're nervous about 'what if the rice isn't level and I'm playing myself', if the water goes up to the first knuckle, do not question it. This is correct and the magic ratio and your rice will be happy that you did not pervert it with an exorbitant proportion of water.
I'm about to cry lmao, for fuckin years I've been wondering why my rice comes out like congee. Love yall, I've officially christened chapo.chat with my first drunk post <333
the only rice we ate growing up was minute rice and it tasted like shit. I thought I didn't like rice until I learned to cook
Wooooo
