Cooking Tip


  Always let rice rest:

 "Take the pot off the heat before removing the lid and fluffing the grains. This allows any residual moisture to release itself from the air pockets in the rice. If you were to fluff the rice without letting it rest, it would be too moist and sticky. Rice grains should not stick together, unless you're making sticky rice, or sushi rice. " (Notes on Cooking)

Cooking Tip



Cook with unsalted                         butter: 

"To control the seasoning of a dish, use unsalted butter when you cook. Leave salted butter for the table." (Notes on Cooking)
