When my Asian girlfriend showed me the thing with your finger to measure the water I did not believe it. I couldn't understand how it could be the samesince everybody's fingers are different and the amount of rice and size of pot are different. After I made it myself a couple times and seeing her do it dozens of times I realized it works every time. coming from a home where we only ate rice once or twice a month I really should have trusted her since she'd been eating rice three times a day for over 20 years

Idk why, but YT recommended this video. I've watched more than one rice cooking video, and a few other cooking channels. But my God, this was such a relaxing video to watch, the music and your tone is just relaxing. I can't wait to see what other videos you have in store

I’m quite literally shocked at how my rice came out perfect on THE FIRST TRY after watching your video. Thank you thank you! Now I can enjoy my rice as it should be!

I am so bad at cooking that I have to watch this video every single time I want to cook rice. but it works so well its totally worth it. especially once you test it once or twice to adjast the time and the heat to your stove.

As an asian that cook rice everyday, i approve this technique 👍👍👍

Thank you Adam! 😊 I have tried so many "foolproof/easy/perfect" stovetop rice recipe tips with no success. After watching your video I just made a lovely pan of soft, chewy, separate, fluffy (ie perfect) white long grain rice with my cheap stainless steel saucepan and ceramic cooktop. Thank you 🙏

This is pretty much exactly how my mom taught me to make rice and I was so happy when you washed because I feel like a lot of people skip over that step! The only thing I was taught different is my mom always told me to turn the heat off even if there is some water left since the pot is still hot and the rice will finish cooking.

I lived in China for 3 years. This is the method I used as did our Aiyi. Perfect rice every time. Well demonstrated here. 👍

Thanks, I have already researched dozens of videos and yours beat them all out. The part about the rice choosing how much water to absorb did it for me. I want an oriental rice, not too sticky but not too granulated and yours absolutely makes perfect sense. I look forward to more of your videos now.

Thank you Adam. This is excellent. I've been cooking rice for years with rice cooker, pressure cooker and pots. This has shown me another way of cooking rice which is superb. Thank you for your great videos Adam. Shaun, Nottingham UK 🇬🇧

The result looks great, I have got to try it with the lid off and then on, just like you did. After watching "Jiro dreams of sushi" I have started to cook my rice in a pot with the lid on, and a big bucket of water placed on top for pressure. 2 minutes on high heat or until I see steam, and 15 minutes on the lowest setting. After watching a video from the Sushi Assiciation of Japan I have started to palm the rice in a small amount of water (to polish it), before washing it with abundant water. The Japan Sushi Association video also showed an astonishing step of not only soaking rice for 30 minutes, but also letting it dry in a sieve for 30 minutes. Combined with a good rice vinegar:sugar:salt "sauce" right after cooking and with the rice paddle "cutting" technique + fanning the rice to cool - I have arrived at the best rice ever, since first cooking sushi rice over 10 years ago.

This was such a wonderful video. I use the same process just from experience over the years but the way you talked through the process explained something’s I didn’t actually know the reason for. As a non-Asian that loves amazing rice thank you for doing this video. Cheers!

Whoever he was, he's a living doll. I appreciate him teaching me the proper way to cook one of my most favorite foods. Thanks again!

Top tiered recipe!!! I love the explanations about induction stoves needing only 3/4 heat to avoid burning and showing us what the rice hitting the water with air bubbles looks like

I love those little pieces of trivia you sprinkle throughout the video like when you mentioned 「しゃもじ」! Loved it.

I love going through your videos. Your energy is super soothing, and your recipes have really inspired me to tackle them. I just bought a stock pot and a whole mess of bones and chicken and I’m going to try making my first stock!

This method has changed my life. Works brilliantly!

I always hated the way my rice turned out upon following the instructions on the back. Just made jasmine rice this way and omggg. It’s absolutely perfection. Tasted so good I just ate spoon fulls of the rice by itself 👌 Thank you friend!

This video turns a rice cooking tutorial into beautiful art. Well done!

Thank you for this video! I learned how to cook rice in a pot as a kid, but have used a rice cooker since then. Now 30yrs later, ive learned i was missing a step. Your video helped remind me

Middle finger method always makes the perfect rice!

I just discovered this channel and it's so soothing, so much explaining, so wholesome. You gained a subscriber friend!

Very very nice video! As someone who's new to cooking Asian food since the lockdown started here in the US, this really cleared a lot up for me. Thank you!

I love how chill these videos are

I just made rice using this method, followed the video step by step. The rice was perfect! It works! Adam thank you for the video.

Even if I weren't learning to cook Asian food I'd still watch Adam's videos. He's the best in the Internet.

I love the music in these videos. Makes them feel as life changing as his cooking advice.

That had to be hands down the best instruction I have ever seen. Thanks!!

Just found your channel. Thanks for helping me cook better rice. Definitely improved my rice.

Not in a Asian household but my Hispanic Fiance and her family always make great rice and I want to be able to do the same! So excited to have this way when I’m on the go and we don’t have our rice cooker.

My rice came out so perfect I shed a tear. I’ve been burning my rice time after time, crunching through hard, uneven, and downright gross rice grains. I do this no longer. Thank you Adam.

I never had bad home-cooked rice until my wife passed away and I was forced to make it myself. I followed your instructions and was very pleased with the outcome. May I be as bold to say that I think you took my wife's technique and published it for yourself. LOL! Thank you for your instructions it worked out wonderful. Now I don't have to go to my local Chinese restaurant to buy cooked rice.

Thanks to you Adam I managed to make Afuri style Shio Ramen for 10 people (my family) two weeks ago. I have to admit, I never tasted (nor made obviously) ramen, but I knew from the beginning I would love it. The long preparation, especially during the first times of Autumn gave me a great "DIY satisfaction" and taught me the pleasure of controlling everything at each stage of the process.

I'm gonna be the first one to admit that I couldn't make rice properly before. It was either mushy or half-cooked, I once burnt it to the point where I almost had to throw the pot in the garbage. I literally told myself: I'll follow this guy's intructions and if it doesn't work out, I'll just buy a rice cooker. Let me tell you, I just made the perfect rice for the second time thanks to you! It's fluffy, sticky and absolutely perfect. Thank you! You saved a lot of money for me.

I cannot appreciate this video enough. I got a bag of fresh jasmine rice and I’ve been epically failing it. Batch after batch of barely edible rice. It’s either slightly undercooked and sticky, or very well done and falling apart. Or the top is cooked bottom undercooked, or bottom mushy top dry. Not me almost crying but totally me almost crying after, what? 20 failed tries. I saw this video. Put my hands together in prayer and followed your instructions. When done… I was thrilled to see it not only perfectly cooked but FRAGRANT as well. Oh the fragrance was enough to tell me this was a SUCCESS!! THANK YOU!!!!!

This worked perfectly and was so easy, thank you!

They really help take the stress out of the day and this year (COVID-19) they are particularly helpful. Thank you for teaching and sharing your gifts!

This method is legit. I watched me do it just a few hours ago and it was my first time. I used Jasmine brown rice so I had to cook for 30min instead of 15. My rice turned out great. Just as good as my mom and dad's and they've been doing it way longer than me. Next time I wanna try it with the Japanese seaweed, sesame seed and salt seasoning.

The feeling of holding a piping hot and full ceramic rice bowl with it's narrow base tapering to the wide rim, or a wide flat bottomed metallic one with shallow walls, and acute curves that's so hot you need a napkin to act as an impromptu oven mitt because you're too hungry to not nom nom, is one of the most comforting feelings that always hits me with a sense of nostalgia and the warmest memories of home cooking every time it happens. Done on a briskly cold day, and the feeling is only amplified to a level which seems to never fail at producing a smile upon my face. 잘 먹겠습니다~! 🤤

Really helped I had trouble making rice and tried for 2 hours until I gave up and looked up a tutorial and this really helped

One additional thing you can do is add a small piece of rinsed Kombu seaweed (Rinsed just enough to remove the surface salt) to the top of the water which will add a touch of umami flavoring to the rice while it cooks. Superb for sushi rice, and rice-based Japanese recipes.

Gonna try this. Thanks
