Reply to comment by Fknoffatwork in LPT: boil rice until it’s almost fully cooked, drain, then return to pan, cover and steam on low heat for 10 mins. Tastes much better than boiling, draining and serving. by circumlocutious

But draining reduces the starch.

That’s not enough tho. Boiling brings out the starch.

1). What’s so bad about starch? 2). I like my rice extra-starchy.

Amazing how many have no idea about arsenic in their rice. Thank you for bringing awareness. This reminds me of radon, how little the gen pop actually realizes this is a "thing"

What? I need to test for radon in my basement?
