Using a clay pot or cast iron cooker
- Wash the rice thoroughly until the washing water becomes clear in the clay pot or a cast iron cooker that you are going to use for cooking rice.
- Drain the washing water completely, and add the equal amount of water to cook.
- Place a lid on and start to heat, over high heat.
- Once it starts to boil, turn the heat down to low medium. From this point, never open the lid, and cook a further 15 minutes.
- Turn the heat off and let the rice cook in the remaining steam inside the cooker for 10 minutes.
- Open the lid and turn the rice a few times from the bottom.
Notes
- *1 if you can not access to Koshihikari rice, get the best short grain rice that you can get.
