Before investing in a rice cooker several years ago, I avoided cooking rice. Whenever I did, it was either too dry or wet and always boiled over making such a mess. I never rinsed it thinking this was an unnecessary step…wrong! Now, I cook it regularly. Start with great, fresh rice, rinse and do yourself a favour and invest in a rice cooker..it’s a game changer. These rice varieties are the essentials. For poke bols and stir frys, choose this great medium brown rice. It will hold its shape unlike the dry long grain rice. And for rice pilafs or soups, nothing beats this wild, very Canadian rice from Manitoba. It has been such a pleasure collaborating with Rick Atkins of Wildman Ricing.
