Perfect video. No mucking about, just good, clear and easy instructions which is exactly what I need. Thanks mate.

Yep, it's about ratio! I love this trick. My dad grew up in Hawaii and he was taught this way... then taught my mom and me this way.... Rinse, put in pot, add one knuckle of water and cook! :-). Thank you for this reminder.

I was taught 1 to 2 for rice/water. So, One Cup Rice and two cups water !

This should be a recommended video for the sistema rice cooker, he explained it well

Thank you. Out there in the big wide world you are there, and a helpful person who restores my faith in umanity. Great for me - dont know how I have struggled along for so long only to end up with mushy rice.

Best video on KZfaq on the subject if you ask me simple and straight to the point with flawless technique

Thanks for this tip ,it's a great way to get the stew done and not worry about watching the rice.

The finger is the way I learned to make rice!! Comes out perfect everytime!! Love that you used this method for measuring the water!! ❤️

I have a 900w microwave, I cook it the same way as explained but for "20 min" Instead of fifteen..... "PERFECT" LOVE IT.!! OH.... I ALSO ADD BUTTER. 1/2 STICK TO TWO CUPS OF RICE. AND A HALF TEASPOON OF GARLIC POWDER...IT SMELLS LIKE I'M AT THE MOVIES IN THE APT. A VERY HOT BUTTERED POPCORN AROMA PERMEATES THE WHOLE APT.!!

I got the sistema steamer too. Not tried either yet. Another good tip is mix tilda basmati and laila jasmin together in equal measures.

Great video! Thanks!

You can keep some rice washing water for the plants. ^^

Well done, I love those Sistema microwave cookers, they work so well!

Nice review. The coating on my good cooker went bad and need a replacement. Definitely will give this a try. Thank you.

Thank you! I had to cook the rice today and you explained the steps easily. Came out perfect 👌

Thank you chef

Just got one,I'll try this tomorrow,good clear explanation,I especially like the "trick" with the finger for measuring.

Yep! That’s the rice cooking lesson we’re taught here in Hawaii! Aloha!🤙🏻

rice, bulgur, buckwheat, pasta- 120 g cold water- 250 g power- 600 w time- 7 min leave in the switched-off microwave for at least 10 minutes you can add a spoonful of olive oil to the pasta so that it does not stick together

Helpful! nice to see a video about cooking and your kitchen is clean!!! Thank you.

Flatmate said " ohh you can't cook rice in the microwave the water will splatter everywhere. Ahh theres a lid on top." might get myself one of these.

Thank you very much for the video I just got mine in the mail can't wait to try it I'll let you know the outcome

Gonna try today here in grimsby uk, thanks

Thanks for the tip

Good step by step guide thank you

Different size hands, different finger measurements?

Im here because my friend gave me microwave rice steamer and i don't how to use☺ ,thanks now

Thank you accidently brought a slow cooker instead of a rice cooker been waiting for the past 2+ hour for it to cook now where near done

The rice is not rinsed enough. Wash it thoroughly soak and drain with your strainer 4-5 x to have perfect clear water. Rice is more fluffy if cleaned properly, also less toxins left.

Looks perfect I’m gonna buy one 👍👍👍

Spot on thanks

Nice trick with the finger bro, kudos! 👌

yes the finger trick is legit no matter how much rice you are cooking but i want to know how much plastic get leeched into the rice

I have the older decor one, 2 cups of rice and 4 cups of water 17 minutes and perfect every time

Hello , Nice video !!! Just wanted you to know that the clear piece of plastic you put on the rice cooker before you put the top piece with the securing latches is a strainer itsself that’s why it has the holes ( that way you can give your strainer a rest !!)

Thank you do much x

Can you please tell me how long for Brown Rice and would it be more water given it takes longer < Thank you

Saw that the water on top of the rice before cooking was milky, I suspect that this means there was quite a bit of starch still to be washed off prior to cooking???

When and how much do you add the sushi su?

Hello, a stereotypical rice eater here. My question is: When you are using your finger to measure how much water to use, how do you know if you haven't moved your finger when you're adding the water??? I've tried so many time by now and I have found I have always moved my finger on accident when I add the water to my bowl with rice in it. Many thanks.

So good thanks

I don't know what wattage my microwave is but if I put something in for 15 minutes, there would be nothing but a black crisp left.

I don't have the microwave rice cooker, I have the rice cooker, I use the same method thanks.

Thanks

Using the same cook ricer from Sistema: 1 cup rinsed rice (91 % entire grain), 500 ml of water, 2 tsp of salt, 12 min full power in the microwave, result yet moist and lightly hard, five more minutes full power, result dry but yet hard

u r the man .thanks great video

Fingering the rice 😂😂

What happens if you have small fingers

👍👍

At 2:03, omg his water is still cloudy. Rice won't come out fluffy and detached. I wash by hand until water is 90% clear. I collect that waste water to water my plants in the garden. When I cook basmati rice, I wash and then soak for 45 minutes. Then drain and cook in clean water for just 7 min on the hob. So I save on gas bill. If I do not pre-soak, the cooking can take as long as 15 min. *Question* Do you know how long pre-soaked rice would take in microwave?

cooking, without glue.

I need this for travelling

Was that using a Sistema rice cooker product. Thanks

Can you so cook brown rice in this cooker if so how would you do it ? Thank you 😊

That line on the finger depends on how big your bowl is doesn't it

What type or what kind of bowl is this and where i can buy this

Does the finger trick work for smaller portions of rice?

Where did you get your diffuser?

Boiling it takes just as long 😂😂😂😂

Hope u can get a cooking show

i like my rice without fingers

Funny you were flipping OFF your rice when measuring for the water.😂

Did you use that 15 mins to put a shrimp on th barby?

The rice looks gloopy - likely because you rinsed it once. Indians wash rice 5 times, so the starch runs clear. Make every grain separate

Does the steam coming from the rice eventually block the microwave?

The life for this one is a strainer

But I've got a metric finger. Yours is imperial.

i did every cook rice by finger

where can I get this rice cooker please?

But without salt and oil???

2 cups rice = 4 cups water Microwave for 10 mins then wait 5 mins Perfect rice 4 cups rice = 8 cups water 14 mins microwave then leave for 5 mins perfect rice You can wash the rice but definitely not essential

OK, so I just did everything in this video...except my microwave only cook at 6mins. at a time. Once it stopped, it was stopped for about 20secs, I added another 6mins., and then the water started bubbling out of the rice cooker onto the microwave's rotating glass table. SMH! I guess I should try adding more time just before it hits 0:00 to avoid the bubble over. Rice is cooked perfectly after 13 and a half mins. in an 1100 watt microwave. Hopefully that helps someone else that might have had this happen to them. Now I've got a lil mess to clean before dinner. SMH!😅

How to Brown rice cook.water messure and time

You could have actually washed the rice instead of just throwing water on it but cool gadget anyways

Amount of Rice x 2,25 = amount of water.

really bro a finger?

I have long fingers

my microwave burns my rice every time

15 minutes? damn too long for me to wait, i was assuming 1 minute.

Thanks for the video

Middle finger! Watch 4:00-4:09

Drink a carton of goon before you start, oh wait!!!!!, you already have.

Rice? It was very caked, that is not rice is mortar to build castles. The emulsion of water and starch comes out. I see this product for pasta or vegetables

Middle Finger! Watch 1:40-1:50

One more thing. In this world of idiots and evil dictators, people like you show us that humans are by and large helpful and generous in their nature.

I hate this finger thing 😢 is it necessary

This is rather obscene. Another finger could have been used for the dip, to prevent certain associations. It could also just be me; the rice looks perfect btw.

15 minutes? Back to stove

Fingering the rice

reallyyyyyyyyyy come on man everyones fingers are different that is a crazy way to measure rice and get some taste in there! use chicken stock instead of water.

Thats why we r fat😢😢😢

Ll

Right, the thing didn't come with actual directions? 4 scoops of rice to ?? scoops of water??? Come on, bro!

That transcript is awful and the captions on the video are just as bad 😢

This is how not to cook rice and cook it un higinicly ... you leave it in the steamer after 12 mins in the microwave for 6min so it cooks correct... silly this way will over cook it and leave it dry.

Chi.. measurements with finger !?????

Oh dear, I thought this was a video in how to use the flippin rice cooker not how to rinse the rice😭Please shoot me now!!!

Please cook safe & don't put your finger in the food other people are going to eat. Follow W.H.O. guidelines.
