You can buy rice that is not white and processed and in a box. Whom knew? TIL.

You can also buy plastic rice when in China.

The rice I buy isn't instant, but still comes in a bag. Granted it is a much larger bag. Thanks.

Weird is that real rice only takes 20 minutes but of course it really is 5 minutes of sitting tyme.

Seems like my Rice cooker uses less water than instructions.

Never tried minute rice because well Y when I have the full 25 minutes as other stuff needs to be prepared anyway

so true, you can build meals working off of how long it takes the rice to cook.

I never soak and rice on stove is 20 minutes plus the 5 sitting tyme

Any machine that takes longer than an ordinary stove is not worth using

Exactly Y wood your rice be more better than mine?

Now and you may not be aware of this unless you have been to say one of these? Or a competitor - White Rice and for example Chinese as defined by Short Grain as compared to Japanese Rice which is Long Grained - White rice can vary in price by a LOT of $$$$

So I do use two grades of Short Grain White Rice - One on the regular price side and One VERY Expensive - And I am NOT talking about Sushi Rice which is different as well.

So perhaps you use an even more expensive more better grade rice than I use. Then and only then wood your rice taste more better. White Rice is like White People - There R Variations to what you get package wise

Short Grain Rice, sometimes called Round Rice, is another category of Rice that groups Rice cultivars by their size and shape. As with Long Grain Rice and Medium Grain Rice, there are a few different types of Rice that can be lumped in under the term “Short Grain.” Rice types are also sometimes grouped along a few dimensions such as color, stickiness, lineage, etc.

In practice, Short Grain Rice is the easiest to spot visually because if the Rice grain is short, plump, and almost round the Rice will be classified as a Short Grain Rice. The official metric is if the Rice in question is less than twice as long as it is wide then it is a Short Grain Rice. In addition to their grain sizes, most Raw Short Grain Rice grains are opaque and not translucent like Long Grain Rice or Medium Grain Rice.

More importantly, Short Grain Rice has a much larger proportion of the sticky Starch (Amylopectin) than the stiff Starch (Amylose). The sticky Amylopectin resides in the outer layer of the Rice kernel and any Amylose present will be in the harder inner portion of the kernel, known as the “pearl” (“Perla” in Italian). The preponderance of Amylopectin, which Gelatinizes (and gets sticky) when cooked, means Short Grain Rice should also be categorized as a Sticky Rice. The percentages of Amylose and Amylopectin vary within Short Grain Rice types, ranging from the very sticky Glutinous Rice to the somewhat less sticky Japanese Short Grain Rice or Baldo Rice. Brown Rice versions (the same grain but with its Rice Bran intact) of Short Grain Rice will be less sticky than White Rice versions (the same grain milled or polished to remove the Rice Bran) because the Rice Bran contains and protects the Amylopectin.


White Short Grain Rice has 6 standard grades: Extra Fancy Rice (U.S. No. 1), Fancy Rice (U.S. No. 2), Extra Choice Rice (U.S. No. 3), Choice Rice (U.S. No.
