No day-old rice? I got you. Cook your fresh rice, then freeze it for 20 minutes.
It won't be as perfect, but it’s better than nothing. The cold shock dries out the surface.
Spread it flat on a plate. Freeze it like a tiny rice graveyard. Then break it up with your fingers.
Don’t Overcook the Base
When boiling, use a tight-fitting lid. No peeking! Every time you lift it, steam escapes.
Cook on low heat. Let the rice steam itself. Fluff with a fork afterward, not a spoon.
Make How To Fried Rice
Spoons mash grains. Forks are rice's best friend. Treat them with respect.
