Brilio.net - Cooking rice is a daily routine that seems simple, but it turns out to require patience. The process takes quite a long time, which is around 30 to 45 minutes, often being a challenge for those with busy schedules. However, this long time is actually important to produce perfectly cooked ricenot too hard, but not too soft either.
The cooking time for rice is influenced by several factors, such as the type of rice used, the volume of water, and the cooking method. Rice that requires longer soaking or uses traditional equipment such as a steamer tends to extend the cooking time. In addition, the process of absorbing and evaporating the right amount of water is the key to getting a soft rice texture.
But you can still produce sticky rice in a short time, you know. There is a trick that can be practiced to cook rice quickly in just 10 minutes. Not with a rice cooker or steamer, this trick only requires a regular pan to produce sticky and perfectly cooked rice.
As reported by BrilioFood from Instagram @sharajevoo on Sunday (5/1), the technique used is to apply the 5-5-5 method. So the rice is cooked for 5 minutes, left for 5 minutes, then cooked again for 5 minutes. Without the need to steam again, this process can make the rice perfectly cooked.

For a clearer method, wash the rice to be cooked. Then put it in a pan and fill it with water according to the measurement. Then cover the pan and boil the rice for 5 minutes over medium heat.

After 5 minutes, open the lid and stir the rice. Once done, turn off the stove and close the lid again. At this stage, you can let the rice sit for 5 minutes so that the hot water can be perfectly absorbed into the inside of the rice, so that the texture becomes softer.

Next, cook the rice again for 5 minutes on medium heat. Well, after cooking for 5 minutes, the rice will be more sticky and perfectly cooked. You can stir the rice again so that the remaining trapped steam can escape. That way, the rice will be more sticky and ready to eat.
