#KnuckleMethod

2024-12-25

@dhedgehog A #RiceCooker that I used for over 40 years died a year or so ago & I just went back to the #OldWays & cook my rice now on the #StoveTop like my mother taught me how to do over 60 years ago.

I use the #KnuckleMethod to measure the water.

I use a 4qt pot. Add 3 cups of long grain rice. Pour water in/out til it just touches my knuckles & put it on the stove top.

Just takes 25 mins on low heat & it's all done. Never burnt. Never over or under cooked. 🤷‍♂️

Don't need a "stinking" rice cooker. Besides I've got too many #KitchenAppliances already. LOL! 😉

A New Leaf Journal reader made me aware of the "knuckle method" for remembering how many days are in each month.
