Doug i guess !! Because my mom does it like that but my dad does it like you !! So can't really tell ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ I'm confused

i sometimes do both

WAIT HOW IS THIS PINNED COMMENT 9 HOURS AGO WHEN THE VIDEO WAS JUST 11 MINUTES AGO- Anyways tho!! my personal opinion,,, the way you cleaned the rice with your hands is better because i think doing it aggressively can cause a lot of spills of rice grains... but for how many times the rice should be cleaned, doug is the correct one in this because its true that the water should be on the clear side before cooking 👍👍

Yeah I do it til its clear... Love your content new sub!!

My family never wash the rice😈😈😂😂

I was taught this from my mom, but to wash it only three times when I was in the Philippines. I was a helper in a kitchen though, so I'm sure that was probably just the cook's preference rather than something all Filipinos agree on. I mean, my mom didn't. 😂

Same

I was taught to just buy instant rice, because "no one has time to wait for the rice to cook" I always wanted to learn how to cook rice, but no one ever taught me

Same

we only wash our rice twice cuz same reasons XD The more we wash it, the less nutritional it is

Yeah, same reason. I only wash it once so that the nutritional value remains. I don't know if this is true tho

That's not the "NuTriTiOn" being rinsed out , that's starch, the more starchy the rice is , the more unhealthy it is 😭

@@ihaveapurpleheart1233 In the USA the rice is enriched with vitamins. Literally dusted with vitamins. If you wash the rice. You are literally washing the nutrients off. This is a fact.

@@ihaveapurpleheart1233 I think starch makes it less sticky or sm

No way, until it's clear. Omg I'm a Filipino and yes you're just saving water but that's not good.

@@lealeeismyname why?

@@lealeeismyname no you shouldnt do it until its clear because it would break and make the rice too fragile

It also depends on how sticky you want the rice to be because that is the starch

Filipino here, we only rinse once Probably to preserve water too lol, but it's still cooked okay so idk

Yesss

My culture puts the rice in water for about 2 hours and then takes the water out and cookes it

My culture doesn't wash rice at all. Damn Americans.

Good to know thanks!

I was about to wash my rice in the rice cooker, thank you

How?

@@Mattyv7Zojirushi rice makers have a non-stick coating on the inside of the bowl that will break down over time from the abrasion of the rice against the bowl while washing

@@shokthapublik ahhh I see. I don’t know why people don’t just use a sifter. It’s so much easier and faster to wash the rice that way. That’s how I have always done my rice

Apparently if you wash it totally clean some think it loses the rice flavour and smell, so I think it’s totally personal preference!

That's how I was taught too

Your rice ain't having a single taste dawg

@@omegaknight9284 and? I'm gonna eat it with some flavourful dishes anyway

You are rinsing away most of the vitamins and minerals. Look it up.

Depends on quality of the rice as well as type. Mushy rice 100% depends on the amount of water used. Use less water "chef" lol... Also use the correct water measurements per type of rice. Not all rice is same.

@@jazlinyu9782 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

@@jazlinyu9782 mushy rice isn't always the amount of water u use. It's also the amount of heat. If u have it too high the rice will be mushy and sticky

Thank you, you saved me a Google

No point to trying to remove all the starch. Rice is starch.

Same but when my mom is watching I make her do it

Me too 😂😂😂😂

And that is the only acceptable answer.

Same XD its clean either way XD just the one with clean water usually rice stay good longer

Right!

also means less dirt

@@eatingabowlofnailsforbreak7862 it's not dirt, it's starch from the rice

I've tried until clear, not washing at all, and 2-3 times. I really can't tell the difference.

@@kornbread435 varies on the type of rice...some types and brands can be really starchy

Pfft washing rice… why?

The washing only gets rid of the loose starch dust on the grains

Ew

@@khieff how is that an ew. We still wash our rice atleast 2-3 times but not until the water goes crystal clear. Some people dont even wash their rice

oh my parents told me that too

This comment right here!

same for us maldivians

us Filipinos too but I'm lazy so I just wash it twice

Same I'm Indian

You are men of culture 👍

@@heheboi55the rest of filipinos do not claim this

Yeah that's the gist of how starch works on rice. Also some countries wash it not to remove starch but to remove dirt and impurities (Other countries already have clean rice supplies). Anyways, if you're making something like risotto, it's best to buy clean rice grains and not to wash it at all.

Sounds about right. I've been taught and like my rice sticky, so I'll just stick with 3 times

Yess very true ive been thought like this

I think you're wrong. it from the type of the rice that is sticky not how many times it washed. basmati rice need more water than jasmine rice and sticky rice need to Soak in water for more than hours to make it perfect cook. it's not a brand or recipe. it's how to prepare that rice for cooking. also tips for jasmine rice put many cups of rice in the rice cooker as you want but 2 cup is good for 2 people and then use your 1 knuckle for the water level measure from the top of the rice not the bottom of the pot. if that time it cooked soke, lower the level from you knuckle. if it dry rising the water. that is how my mom told me how to cook and use the rice cooker.

Correct, if anyone wants their rice on sticky side and fluff more then 2-3 times is enough for me I prefer on the grainy side so I washed it until it's clear. What you can do in more traditional way to make it really perfect is by streaming the rice for 10 minutes after its done cooking then break it up and move it to rice cooker for continuous warming/heating

They wash their rice and so do we✊🏾 wash it Vigorously to the water runs clear

If you dont wash rice you leave all the arsenic in the rice the washing is to clean it and make it safe for consumption

@@texstone3668 uh huh.... Gotta source?

OH…

Ur joking right?

I’m Filipino too, but was taught to wash it until it’s clear ^^

Maybe that’s why Filipinos are so short. Cause the rice not washed properly may be affecting their growth.

@@Btt8 it doesnt affect growth!

@@Btt8 You offended our entire country...

@@Ilovekimi I said MAYBE!!! why is it impossible for that to be the case? How can I offend an entire country when they’re not reading my comment?

Yup definitely. The moment I saw the rice in her video , I was like what are those , they seem like beads more than rice . Than I came to realize that the way we as Pakistani do it is completely different. First of all , our rice are not round or ovalish , rather they are more longer , we also first put or rice in a bowl of water for about 15 mins for it to get softer and thicker , then we rinse the rice 2-3 times. We also , if making just plain white rice , add salt and oil to it and add it to water in the pot. Then we cook it on low heat with a cover on it. The result is quite different from ur type of rice , our rice don't clump at all , not even a little , rather they stay as separate cooked rice grains . Needless to say , it depends on the area and region

I’m also Filipino and I was taught to wash rice until it runs clear 🤷

Im also Filipino but i wash it till clear or atleast kinda clear But when im rushing i wash it only 2 times :))

team claw hands and 2 rinse here too 🖐

mom aint hesitate at all

Because if they don't have plants, are they supposed to drink them

@Average but the plants I have are small and don’t need a whole pot

I heard it’s also good for your hair if you soak your hair in it

@@shewp rice water is good for so many things. Wash ur hair with it

@@shewp there are many ways to repurpose rice water ☺️ I just mentioned plants cause that's one of the ways I repurpose them. If you don't have plants then of course you won't use it for plants lol. Washing your face, cleaning things, for your hair etc. Plenty of ways to reuse rice water besides watering plants

Yes, in the US rice is fortified by coating it(different methods) so any rinsing can cause the fortified nutrients (and excess starches) to be wash off. I use the rinsed water for my plants.

There’s no such thing as “wash away nutrients” from rice when cleaning it until clear water. My asian mum says you eat it when it’s cooked, during cook it doesnt kill any nutrients too. Rice water can be really dirty during first and second wash because of dirt from production process and factories. Some sheller machines didnt fully clean the inedible hulls.

@@subscribeburntrivers as noted by Tiffles, US rice has pretty heavy regulations and is fortified with a nutrient powder ontop. This is not the case world wide, different countries use different nutrient techniques and production techniques. But US rice (and by extension Canadian rice), is produced to be unwashed. Washing it removes the added nutrients.

@@CFIREKytb newflash rice doesnt have any usefull nutrients. Youre eating dirty rice coated in chemicals lmao

@@Jblah I recommend looking up how rice is produced in the US. Adam Ragusea has a very good video talking to Rice Food Scientists who work with the Rice Farmers in the US to maintain regulations. I trust science over tradition personally, but I do also wash my rice (it helps negate the fact I bought sushi rice for normal food...) Many dishes in southern Europe actually require the rice to be unwashed as well to maintain that extra starch. The idea rice is "dirty" or "covered in chemicals" is from a time before modern standards. Edit: It's called "Rice Fortification" and is done by countries around the world. Places with a culture that washes rice (or does not have as high of safety standards for food production) will use fake rice pieces in the rice so it doesn't get washed away. In places that do not wash rice, they generally use a powder.

It takes off some of the excess starch and makes it cook better

It depends entirely on the cuisine. Some cultures do, some don't. I judge it based on the consistency I want.

Also you really need to depending on the quality. I washed some really cheap rice last week and the stuff that came out made it look like a watered down oreo milkshake. It was really gross looking and it took a while for that water to finally be clear. It tasted normal thankfully.

Y'all are eating crispy rice?💀

sometimes theres bugs in ur raw rice rhat you have to wash out

Not really. You need to soak it for hours and cook it in a lot of water that you drain instead of the normal method

Yeah same

She put everything into the sink with HOT water & dish soap. My boyfriend and I had mum remind us of an urgent errand we needed to head out for, so that we headed to the shop to buy new salad veggies. Wish I could say she got better at cooking...

Yep

because we don't like sticky rice clear and separate

@@kocho2925 people in the orient who use chopsticks would prefer rice to be sticky so it is easier to grip. Which is not something Indians are concerned about.

@@satyakisil9711 yes and sticky rice also doesn't go with the sabjis we make they just don't taste good together 🤷‍♀️

@@kocho2925 sticky rice doesn't go well with anything Indian. Maybe idlis on sticks can be made with them.

I'm a Filipino too and my mom also taught me to wash rice that way. I guess its all about different culture.

I'm Indonesian. And me too!! No one taught me how to wash rice when I was a child. But my common senses just saying I should just wash it once or twice

I'm Filipino but I wash our rice until the water's clear since our rice is not as clean as the normal ones.

They say washing it lesser (minimum of 2 times) keeps more nutrients but I dunno lololol

I'm Filipino and my Lola always told me to wash the rice until the water turns clear.

Aka wrong

Nah. Unless you burn it. But that has nothing to do with washing it.

@@dawniebug784 ohh thanks for the info! I wasn't actually sure if what she said was true but regardless I still follow her instructions

I'm a filipino too, and we wash our rice till the water's clear in our household. To each their own, I guess.

@@ilsavil Yeah, my mom taught me to do it till it's clear, but cooking with other Filipinos as a kitchen helper, the cook told me to do it only three times.

I learned this too! Blended family, so for a while I had Korean family and saw them always wash 3 times. My dad said that clear water makes it not sticky enough, while not washing enough makes it too sticky

Oh hell naw that's rancid 💀💀

Never ate washed rice in my whole life and i hardly ever get sick never even got covid and i stay outside

@@imakeucry1336 yeah same except for the go outside part 🤡 i was never taught to wash rice or told play outside 💀 so i’m lazy now 😃

@@imakeucry1336 Don't see what rice has to do with covid, but you're lucky man. I caught covid without even leaving my house because my mom is an NHS worker. I was using her keys since I lost mine and found out those were the only thing that hadn't been sterilised before she because she forgot after a long shift. She ended up not catching it because she was constantly washing her hands but because I didn't leave the house, I didn't wash my hands nearly as often. lost my smell and taste for a while and got unbelievably tired. It was like having heat stroke

I've only seen a couple ppl make rice (who I just watched and repeated the same process at home) and I've never washed it and I make rice almost every night with curries and things like jodhpur dal and coconut sauces and lentils, etc. Didn't know it was important.... Still don't understand why. Huh.

Hey Chris you are here too 🤪, just kidding 👍🙂

LOL this is so accurate!! That’s what I do sometimes too! 😂😂😂

@@Jeanelleats both are actullay correct. I learned from Ninong Ry that it depends on how you want your rice to turn out once cooked. If you want buhaghag rice for biryani, or fried rice, wash it multiple times. The white color is the starch, which makes it sticky or malagkit. The more you wash it, the more buhaghag it becomes. But if you want fluffy rice that sticks a bit more, only wash it twice.

@@DannahSB 🤯

Yes, exactly.

It kinda makes sense if you put it that way

If you believe the dust from rice it's more nutritious than rice idk man

My mother taught me not to squeeze the rice because it damages the grain. 😅 Playing with the rice is so fun though too 👍👍😃😃

Yup same here. Wash it till the water is clear then the rice is less clumpy or sticky. The grains are loose & defined after fluffing.
