Throw it in the trash and eat pasta or potatoes instead.
> After the victory Kimura slapped his face to make sure he wasn’t dreaming. That night he had a very large meal of 13 bowls of rice. When reporters questioned Kimura about his big win he told them that winning his first All Japan Title was his most memorable experience. Even the night after the tournament Kimura was again training. He did 500 push ups, bunny hop 1km, and 500 karate chops before he went to bed

Some general tips
>wash your rice
Just do this in a strainer, cold water
>don't use too much water
Twice as high as the water comes in your pan, often less depending on your rice. Start with cold water and keep the lid on
>fucking season it if you don't want a bland mess
I've seen people not even use salt. Pepper and salt are compulsory, broth, star anise, garlic and cardamon are my go-to additions
>Cover and boil 1:2 rice water ratio ~20 min
>Strain and leave in the pot covered to steam for 10-30 min
>Consume rice
>Freeze in freezer bag so you don't have to cook rice for an hour the next time you eat it

Does it actually matter if you don't wash the rice?

That timing seems off. If i boiled rice at that ratio for 20 minutes the water would have gone about 12 minutes in and the base of the rice would get burnt to fuck.
Doing red rice for 45 mins, covered and on lowest setting, i still need to add some extra water at around the 35 minute mark.

>1 cup rice. 1.15 cup water.
>Rinse rice until the water runs clear.
>Put rice and water in pot.
>Turn heat to high.
>When water begins to boil turn heat to low.
>Put Lid on.
>Let cook for 15 - 20 minutes.
The rice should be malleable but not too moist. I prefer a drier preparation as it will better combine with hearty protein rich dishes. Rice should be unseasoned other than cilantro if adding to a main dish such as curry or chopped chicken with veggies. Otherwise lightly salt and butter.

Also protip. DO NOT STIR WHILE COOKING YOU FUCKING FAGGOTS.
use brown rice and steam it

Washing get's rid of that starchy shell that causes the foam to boil over the side of the pot.
the only thing I can say about rice is that short/medium grain is better than long grain white or brown
also if you want to give your rice more flavor put this stuff on it

Hahaha look at these whities try to cook rice.
For brown rice you're supposed to soak it overnight and cook every part of rice with 5 parts water. This is to get rid of 80 percent of the water soluble cancer causing arsenic.
rice:water ratio of 1:2
boil until water is gone, introduce rice in unboiled water
