Brilio.net - Rice is one of the most commonly consumed staple foods throughout the world, especially in Asia. As an important source of carbohydrates, rice is an integral part of many culinary cultures and eating traditions. Its abundant availability, ease of cooking, and flexibility in serving make rice a favorite in various dishes, from simple dishes to more special dishes.

In Indonesia itself, the ease of cooking rice is supported by the existence of a rice cooker. Apart from being able to produce fluffy and perfectly cooked rice, rice cookers are also often used to store cooked rice. After all, rice stored in a rice cooker tends to last a long time.

However, there are other impacts of storing rice in a rice cooker. If left in warm mode continuously, the rice can become dry and crusty . However, rice like this tends to be unfit for consumption, so the portion size is reduced.

To prevent this, you can use a trick shared by woman Rani. Through the TikTok account @indomihsoto_, Rani admitted that she only uses one simple tool to prevent dry and crusty rice even if she spends all day in the rice cooker. Well, this tool can be easily obtained at home, you know.

So, after the rice is cooked, don't immediately open the rice cooker. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes so that the steam or remaining water can better penetrate the rice. If so, then open the rice cooker. Then cover the inside of the rice cooker with a napkin and stir the rice using a ladle.

" Why wipe it? So the water doesn't drip ," said Rani.
