Could've done a bit longer today but solid day out in fantastic weather. Definitely feeling the happy chemicals along with the mild soreness. Now time to salvage this shitty leftover gluggy jasmine rice and make fried rice with it. NEVER again am I falling for that nonsense with 1:1.5 ratios on the packet...
I is a 1:1.5 person :(
Maybe that works when on the stovetop but it was a mess in the rice cooker :(
I do 1:1.5 for basmati rice (sometimes 1:2 depending on variety)
I find with jasmine rice you need about 1cm or 1.5cm of water level over the rice to cook it nicely either on stovetop or rice cooker I think from memory.
Has been a very long since Iโve done jasmine rice but it used to be my go to rice variety.
I've made jasmine rice off and on and grew up with various rice types, I honestly know better but I trusted the packet over my instincts... Not next time!!
