How to cook bamboo rice

1. When cooking bamboo rice, the cooking method is similar to that of ordinary rice, but this kind of rice cannot be washed vigorously before cooking. It should be gently rinsed in clean water and put directly into the pot after being taken out. If it is rubbed vigorously, the active ingredients contained in it will be lost. However, if the water for washing rice turns green in large quantities during the rinsing process, it means that this kind of bamboo rice is fake and it is not recommended to be used for cooking rice.

2. When cooking rice, soak the bamboo rice in clean water for 2 to 3 hours in advance, so that it can absorb water and expand, which can make the cooked porridge taste better. Take it out after soaking and put it in the porridge pot, add clean water according to the proportion, heat it to boil, then simmer over low heat. Turn off the heat after the bamboo rice is fully cooked and soft, simmer for three to five minutes, take it out and eat it.

After it stops working, cut off the power. After about 20 minutes, the rice inside will be steamed and you can take it out and put it in a bowl and eat it with your favorite dishes.
