Brilio.net - Meeting daily nutritional needs such as carbohydrates, fiber, protein, and vitamins is important for everyone. Carbohydrates are often met by consuming white rice , which must be cooked first before being consumed. A rice cooker is a practical choice for cooking rice, although it often faces problems such as rice quickly crusting or becoming stale and smelly.
To avoid this problem, some people add margarine to the rice before cooking it. Margarine helps make the rice fluffier and lasts longer even when stored in a rice cooker. However, besides margarine, there are other kitchen ingredients that can be used. TikTok user @annepermata shared how to cook rice by adding two kitchen ingredients to make the rice last longer.
First, wash the rice that will be used under running water. To get maximum cleanliness, he deliberately rinsed the rice twice.

Once done, move the rice into the rice cooker pan. Now, make sure the rice cooker pan used is clean and dry. Because if there is any remaining rice crust or dirt on the surface, it will affect the quality of the rice produced.

After that, pour water according to taste. If so, add two kitchen ingredients, namely the juice of 1/2 lime and 1 tbsp of cooking oil into the rice cooker pan. The type of cooking oil used can be adjusted.
"Lime juice is considered a good natural preservative for rice. The function of cooking oil is to make the rice texture soft and reduce the calorie content in the rice," said the video owner, quoted by BrilioFood on Sunday (12/17).

Once mixed evenly, close the rice cooker and press the cook button. Wait a few moments until the rice is perfectly cooked. Once cooked, the rice will look soft. Not only that, rice is also guaranteed to last in the rice cooker for up to 2 days.
"I've tried this tip many times and it's true, sometimes the rice can last up to 2 days," he said further.
