- Submerge the rice from the broth. Be sure all of the rice is pushed to the broth. This’ll allow it to cook-evenly.
- Use a long-grain white-rice, my taste is vanilla-rice. However, generic-long-grain white ought to work, also. Be aware, I find generic-white-rice may turn more “mushy” than vanilla.
- Brown rice demands a considerably longer cooking time, therefore won’t work with this particular recipe. Should you use basmati, I’d add a moment of cook time since I find it remains more al dente than simply jasmine.
