Why does letting rice sit before fluffing and serving is important?

Letting rice sit before fluffing is important because it allows the grains to finish cooking and evenly distribute the steam. This resting period prevents clumping and helps achieve a light and fluffy texture.

Why is my rice undercooked?

This can occur if you haven’t added enough water or if it hasn’t cooked for long enough. Check the cooking time and water ratio.

Why is my rice too dry?

If the rice absorbed all the water too quickly or you didn’t use enough water initially, it can end up dry.

Why is my rice sticky or gummy?

This usually happens if you’ve added too much water or haven’t rinsed the rice to remove excess starch.

Why did my rice burn on the bottom?

This might happen if the heat was too high or if the pot isn’t heavy-bottomed, leading to uneven cooking.

How can I fix mushy rice?

If your rice is too mushy, try draining off any excess water and then spreading it out on a baking sheet to cool and dry out a bit.
