  • This was the BEST TIP! I have a second had rice cooker that has no cup. so I was so confused about the measurements! Kisses to your mum!

  • Lol why am I here

  • just put that metal pot in the microwave

  • Comment removed

  • does this method work for every rice cooker? someone please answer this

  • I thought you add oil?

  • The reason for rinsing is to remove excess starch to prevent the rice from becoming too sticky. If the rice is fortified with vitamins and minerals (man made process), then yes, rinsing the rice will wash away the nutrients away. Brown rice should be soaked overnight. The reason is twofold. One is soften the rice, the other is to activate the phytase in the rice that makes it more nutritious.

  • It depends what type of rice people. If its brown rice then yes vitamins and minerals. but if its normal white rice then you need to prewash it because of the starch and such.

  • look it up

  • @eva You are not supposed to rinse the rice. That washes away all of the vitamins and minerals from the rice.  Nice video

  • @wootang7469 Wrong

  • Thank you very much!

  • lol "finger the rice" what if i find a nail in my rice? Just add two cups of water per cup of rice bro lol

  • lol, i feel so stupid.

    You should've made the video to make us feel even more stupider, something like " rice>bowl>+1cm of water>cook"

  • OMG i have the same rice cooker =)

  • Great video and explanations. Downloaded the Kambrock Rice Cooker manual. Never thought to look on youtube for a video as good as this one. Cheers n thanks.

  • every asian should know this already lah

  • Ok that is not how to make "Fried Rice" that is how to make "Rice" though using day old rice and not fresh is a nice tip. That's gonna help the chicken noodle soup Thing I am working on, lol. I still want the recipe to fried rice in a 6-cup rice cooker.

  • @Odd879 and the tip-to-knuckle hint is good too

  • nice tip!! Thanks

  • The finger rule doesn't work if you're only making a little rice. I make rice for one at college all the time and if I went to the knuckle, I'd have the grossest soggy rice ever.

  • @waffocopter the main rule I know is 1 part rice to 1 part water (for the rice cooker). Allow room for expansion, lol. On the stove as I remember is 1 part rice to 2 parts water. "part" meaning whatever means of measurement you choose, scoop, cup, etc as long as it is equal. If you are making less than a cup.

  • bro u forgat the salt , oil and also u forgat to clean the rice 

  • i have watch about 10 videos on youtube yours was the best and showed how simple cooking rice is ....thank you

  • Great tip on making fried rice. I like rice sticky rice though because now and then I get this crazy obsessive need for sushi. Nom nom nom.

  • TIGER = Best rice cooker in the world

  • Hi, thanks for your advice. I had been trying to make fried rice after cooking it in a rice cooker. But that part taught me well about 24 hour advance in fridge before doing the fried rice to avoid mushy rice. I am trying this now in fridge for 24 hours thank you for your excellent video.

  • Oh shit, my dad taught me the finger trick!

  • i have the same ricecooker!

  • OMG! Ur Lao!

  • my mom told me that too.. how to measure water for rice

  • YOU missed a STEP!!!

    if you want nice soft rice that doesnt stick together like crazy prewash your rice until it takes on a translucent appearance. Get all that nasty starch off your rice people!!

  • i had few minutes to cook rice so i searched this up lol

  • thats right, the rice cannot be fresh.. it will get mushy!

  • it seems everyone's parents know that old finger/water measurement trick.

    Oh, and btw, the English captions are a bit out of sync.

  • SOY SAUCE SHREK.

  • Great! Thank You Paris !

  • I do the same thing as he's mom said also.. it work.......... cooking rice old fashion way is way better

  • i use the microwave

  • you're water tip is marvelous. It always comes out good. No need to measure or anything. super

  • good tips! 5stars

  • hey this is from sri lanka,I just bought a rice cooker i don't know how to use it .

    should i soak rice for 30 minutes?

    please reply me and thank for your video it's good

  • HEY Thats How My Parents Taught THANKS FOR Doing That !! It Will Help My Friend Who Never Cook Rice Even He has been living in Hong Kong For Years !! hehe! Oh U R Cute By The Way !! :-)

  • SORRY I Forgot !! WE Normally Rinse the Rice First! Also we Always Wrap the Water Off the Base first before Put it in. :)

  • It appears that you prewashed your rice before adding it to the cooker. It may help to explain how and why this is done. - rinse the rice until the water becomes significantly clearer t(to perfectly clear) to wash excess starch off the rice and avoid very stick cooked product.

  • jajaja woww iii messed mine up =(

  • Whats it matter?

  • does that mean u are gay too? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHH­AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH­AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA......­..............................­....... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
