Notes

  • How to cook Japanese short-grain rice
  • Leftover rice is perfect for fried rice (It will be less mushy). When using cold rice from the fridge or room-temperature rice, microwave it before adding it to a frying pan; this way, you can save cooking time.
  • If you cook rice for fried rice, add a little less water to make its texture harder.
