Rice ? Nothing's easier ! staple through Asian countries including Vietnam.
Vietnam is the cradle of origin and domestication of rice in Asia. Rice may be cooked by steam, in water, in a fat or milk but the cooking water is the most common.
There are many varieties of rice whose two main kinds are ordinary rice and sticky rice. Ordinary rice is the staple food and is most consumed.
Using a rice cooker is obviously the simplest but many do not have one. So we will learn an ancient way of cooking rice in Vietnam.
Ingredient:
125 g rice
1/4 liter of water or chicken broth
Now the realization:
Pour cold water or broth in a large saucepan and bring to boil. Then add the rice. Bring back to the boil, and stir.
Cover the pan well. Turn down the heat on your stove and let cook for 15 minutes over very low heat.
Make sure that all liquid has been absorbed. If it remains, put on low heat a few more minutes while covering. The end of cooking rice should be dry, soft and firm.
Turn with a fork to loosen the grains, salt and pepper to taste.
That is a real Vietnamese rice! Simple but essential. the serving with different savory dishes.
