the bane of my exsistence - rice

mood: amused

I love to cook. and I do. When I was an undergrad making dinner and margarits and pretending to study was the highlight of my day. I even briefly considered chucking my diploma and going to culinary school. I come up with recipes all the time, I make the best chocolate chip cookies in the world and there has never been a recipe I could not figure out and put my own personal spin on.

Except for rice



When I cook rice 1 of 3 things will happen

1. the rice is burnt
2. the rice is undercooked
3. the rice is burnt AND undercooked (how this happens I will never know)

Really, rice is supposed to be one of those staples that is easy to throw together and have with whatever. AND I CANT COOK IT. I dont get it. Brandy says just get a rice cooker but that is beside the point! it has like 3 steps to making it - boil water add rice wait 10 minutes voila ...for me this is always chaos and its so frustrating!
