Kitchen Economics
SOLVING THE PROBLEM OF
PERFECTLY COOKED RICE.

Every so often I am amazed 10
ind either at the table of some
otherwise excellent housekeeper. or
IN some first class hotel or restau-
rant the proof of amazing ignon
anee of the simple art of, cooking
rice. Rice ~ 20 easily prepared that
There really il no excuse for the
stic',y, raSty. Unattractive mass one
sees occasionally even at high grade
eating places.
Here is what believe the easiest
method OF cooking rice. and is easily
remembered.
Wash i'm cold water one cupful of
rice. Place in one quart of rapidly
teaspooufuls of salt to the quart.
Stir the rice gently with a fork for
a few moments. Boil rapidly for 80
pinutes. and if the rice should alb
orb all the water. simply add more
hot water
1t is necessary TO stir rice only oc-
casiOnally. and then only with a.
fork
Don't rub with a spoon. as this
rice is tender place i'm a colander
and pour cold water over H. This
will separate the grains
Rice cooked i'm this way is ten
der attractive and hasn't the pasty
consistency which makes il so un-
palatable when cooked careiessiy.
Rice requires only from 20 TO 80
minutes, depending ON the amount
and II should be boiled rapidly. un-
like some OF the other grains-Iike
oatmeal. barley. farina. etc-which
require long. slow cooking
In fact. in the cooking Of all GER
eals. the water should be boiling
rapidly az the time the cereals are
added. This is because each grain is
enclosed i'm a wall of cellulose This
must be broken down quickly SO
that the starch inside is cooked
quickly without FIRST absorbing So
much water that il becomes soggy.
