'Fluffy' white rice (e.g. Chinese food places)

ITS JASMINE RICE. YOU RINSE IT AND COOK IT UNTIL THE WATER COMPLETELY EVAPORATES AND YOU ARE JUST ABOUT TO BURN IT. THEN FLUFF THE HELL OUT OF IT.

Caps... annoyed no one mentioned that its jasmine rice. You can't just use like uncle benz parboiled instant rice or whatever.

Typical that you guys start blabbering on about rice cooker toys (Just use the stove? Like really? You cook it until the water evaporates how hard can it be?)

Jasmine rice you rinse, Basmati you soak. Brown you soak. Success Rice you boil in a bag and douse it with BBQ sauce or something to make it edible.

How many hands did you have to use?

Let's just say I'm glad we had friends over. Between the four of us, we managed to pry it from its ricey dungeon and transport it to the sink for decontamination. Not gonna lie - it was a scary 3-4 feet.

Rice is cooked best in a pot, not a rice cooker.

And

Basmati>All

Please no one denies that white people eat rice, but no one eats rice as much as Asian people. White people eat rice a few times a year, Asian people eat it almost every day.

You do know that rice is grown and eaten in Europe, it's not just "a few times a year".

Plain rice is not such a traditional thing though, think risotto, paella, red camargue rice...
