Place a bowl of cold water on the hard rice
If you accidentally cook rice that is hard or sticky, you can immediately place a bowl of cold water and press it down so that the mouth of the bowl is level with the surface of the rice. This method will help you save the rice pot without having to throw it away.
How to do it: First, when your rice is sticky, immediately place a bowl of cold water and press it down so that the mouth of the bowl is level with the surface of the rice. Cover the pot and let it sit. If you are using an electric rice cooker, you don’t need to turn on the “cook” button, just leave it on the “warm” mode for 2 minutes. If you are cooking rice on a regular stove, leave the heat low for 2 minutes, then remove the bowl of water from the pot.
That’s how simple it is to rescue your rice pot from stickiness and make it delicious again!

Fix undercooked rice by adding boiling water
If you accidentally cook rice that is undercooked, hard rice, you can add water to the rice cooker to rescue it immediately.
However, when adding water, you should add boiling water because if you add cold water, the rice can become mushy or tasteless, reducing its nutritional value. But if you add boiling water, the hard or undercooked rice will be salvaged without affecting the quality of the rice dish. The rice will still maintain its soft, fragrant, and nutritious nature.
Additionally, to have fragrant and sticky rice, remember this method
First, you need to choose good-quality rice, prioritize newly harvested rice as it will be more fragrant and sticky. In addition, choose rice that is plump, shiny, and smooth as it will be more delicious. Also, when choosing rice, check its aroma.
Furthermore, when cooking rice, make sure to cook it twice to evenly cook the rice from the inside out.
