I always use day old rice that I put in the freezer and I tell you it is individual grains every time. Rice actually absorbs liquid.😊😊

Your title is very accurate. My previous attempts at making fried rice sucked. So I carefully followed your tutorial while using basmati rice. The only change was that I added some shrimp. The fried rice is absolutely fantastic! I just can't believe that I made this, being so clueless about cooking Chinese food. It is probably the best fried rice I have every eaten, and better than most if not all that I have had from Chinese restaurants. I have a much smaller stove top griddle that goes over two burners, so I made quite a mess but it was well worth it. Thank you!

I'm right here in Cajun Country. I've been cooking asian food for 35 years. At work everyone I've worked with for 3 decades knows how to roll eggrolls!! Last week I decided to make shrimp fried rice but instead of bringing my woks I did it on our flattop. The plant has blessed us with a Viking 6 burner with a flat top!! We used Louisiana medium grain cooked the day before and dried in the fridge over night. Well I cooked 10 cups of raw rice and let me tell you, that rice was awesome!!! 15 plant workers al went crazy for it!! I really loved your video and am now a subscriber!! Keep up the good work!!

You gotta try Bachan’s original Japanese BBQ sauce for rice wether hibachi or stir fry style. Flavor is amazing and it’s not over salty like soy. You can use quite a bit and it’s not over bearing. I use it on everything when cooking rice, veggies and the meat for stir fry. Total game changer !!

Great video, fried rice is always a hit, and yours looks great! I will have to try the sweet chili sauce /mirin addition, I love that stuff and normally have it on hand. I have even used the Uncle Ben's ready rice packs, pour them in a bowl, break up any clumps and dump directly on the griddle, seems to work just as well and saves a bunch of time. I know making your own rice is usually better, but the ready rice packs are a cheat code for a quick dinner when you are pressed for time.

Gotta say, I've done fried rice a handful of times and the family always loves it, but I've noticed a couple of times how the texture wasn't what I thought it should be. At best, I was inconsistent with how I prepared the rice, so I've been wanting to nail this part down better lately. Now that I'm focused on the MOST important part lol, the end result turned out way better for me! This is a really good video man, thanks to you and the family and Happy Labor Day to you guys

US Chinese restaurants frequently use 1/2 jasmine 1/2 long-grain white for their fried rice. I love Thai fried rice and am pretty sure they use 100% jasmine. Refrigerate the cooked rice overnight to keep let it dry out a bit and give it the not-sticky texture you're used to.
@kevinmason9579
@kevinmason9579 6 месяцев назад
Excellent video! Here are a few of my techniques: - I leave rice in the fridge uncovered to dry. - The “finger measurement” is totally dependent on the size and shape of the container and the amount of rice you’re cooking. Much better to measure by cups. - I agree that day-of rice tastes better because it’s fresher, i.e., it’s not stale. - Cooking it the day of and letting it sit for a couple of hours works well but it also helps if you cook with slightly less water, maybe 5-10% less depending on the rice. - I’ve had really good success with this even when using sushi rice which is a very sticky rice. - Totally agree with your cooking technique. Rice goes on first and on the hot side. This gives it time to heat through and get lightly toasted which gives you the closest thing to the Wok Hei achieved with a very hot Wok that you will get on a griddle. I see so many people that cook the veggies and protein first then toss the cold rice on top of it. - Because the rice hasn’t been lightly toasted they end up dumping on a cup of soy sauce to darken it before they’ve even finished the cooking. - Sesame oil at the end! Yes! Absolutely! Sesame oil isn’t a cooking oil, it’s a finishing oil and can burn quickly. - As for MSG, it’s easily available in every grocery store I’ve even been in as Accent. Accent isn’t quite as nice as the imported (I use Sasa brand “Gourmet Powder” from Amazon) buts it’s still decent. A couple of large pinches is great in fried rice. - Something you might try is using about a tablespoon of Chinese Shaoxing wine (or dry sherry) right at the end. Make a pit in the middle of the rice and add the wine directly to the griddle. Let sizzle for a few seconds and the mix. It adds a very nice background to the rice.

In my experience, the finger only works when cooking rice on the stove. I normally use a pressure cooker for rice now though. For any type of white rice the ratio of rice and water is 1:1 by volume. Pressure cook on high for 3 minutes, then rest 10 minutes before venting for long grain and jasmine rice, 13 minutes for short or medium grain rice. Basmati would probably be shorter because it has a thinner cross section, probably 8-9 minutes. I don't normally make fried rice on the flat top because I have a wok and a high BTU burner for it since my Filipino girlfriend insists that fried rice should be made in a wok and not on a flat top. I have tried it both ways and the wok results in a better end product faster if you're only serving 2-4 people. For larger crowds the flat top is faster just because of the larger surface area. It's different though because the flat top doesn't have the super high heat that the wok has. They're both good, just very different styles of fried rice.

Thanks for your work here. I came for the smashburgers and stayed for many more. You got me totally dialed in on the burgers. Thanks. So, in return, something to offer you since you are on the search for the perfect fried rice. In addition to the oyster sauce and soy (which I add the sesame oil to this mixture vs. a seperate step) for a Thai vibe, add a scoop of penut butter and brown sugar. This will also work with the pepper sauce idea. Great work. Thanks for the videos.

Another reason why you need to wash/rinse rice is there may be bugs in them, like the tiny dead dried bugs. No matter how fresh the rice bag, you're eventually going to find a few.

I bought an Instant Pot to do rice and other types of cooking and I highly recommend it. Since it pressure cooks the rice it is only in for 4 minutes and then you do a natural release which takes about 15 minutes. You can also pressure-cook baked potatoes which take about 15 minutes to do Pressure cooking makes things more tender and cook faster.

Thank you. And I'm glad you did it without adding MSG. I have an allergic reaction to MSG and it shoots my BP way up, so I avoid it. I love fried rice, but always have to ask the restaurant if they use MSG. If they can make mine without it, great. If not then I have to go somewhere else.

You've done a better job with explaining much of the underlying detail of why and how to produce a better outcome than is often done on these channels. As we've talked before, I think a lot of folks do heated rice, forgetting it's supposed to be fried which gives that slightly crispy texture without being dried out excessively. That's where your comment about griddle temp was significant. Glad you talked about the huge mistake of chopping the rice kernels into frisky bits.............ugh!! I'm with you on the egg portion, no surprise there eh(?)............the work it in soft texture adds some creamy mouth feel on top of the fired rice crispy. I'm in the no rinse camp on the rice. A few decades ago I learned how to make good home rice from a Chinese chef. I most often use Jasmin (perhaps because the first real fried rice I had was in Thailand back during the war in VN). I use a normal cooking pot, 1 3/4 cup liquid to one cup rice, not rinsed, as I said, twenty minutes on low after bringing to boil with the lid on, then 10 minutes rest with the lid remaining on. Mine is never clumpy. I do use chicken stock (another flavor layer) rather than water, so that might coat the kernels with a minute amount of fat which would keep down the clumping, perhaps. One thing to consider when advocating for rinsing; the rinsing process does hydrate the rice kernels slightly, so that would explain why you can use less liquid than I do, but end up with a good result as well.

I love my old style magnet rice cooker. I have two of them a larger one and a smaller one. The smaller one fits right into my duffle bag and followed me around for years and years traveling TDY in the Army and I made so much stuff in it from rice to stir-fry to steamed stuff to soups to camping style deserts. That thing can do almost anything if you think outside the box with it.

I had one of those Aroma rice cookers for over 10 years. It was a great rice cooker until it died. I upgraded to a Zojirushi and man, the difference is night and day. I absolutely love this video because you point out how you aren'tt trying to claim this is how to do proper asian fried rice, but how to make better fried rice on a griddle. Granted, all of these tests and comparisons would 100% improve anyone's asian-style fried rice as well.

I tend to go for basmati rice unless I'm using it in a soup - then I use plain old white rice BUT I do ALWAYS rinse my rice 😁 I will be trying your fried rice recipe but got to put broccoli in place of those peas. Also, gotta say - I LOVE the color of your shirt Neal! Maybe we need those shirts with a Shake This and Smash That logo on the back 😍

I toast my basmati in the starch unrinsed in a tbsp olive or veg oil per cup of rice for a few minutes until you get that nutty smell, and that whiter sheen on all the rice, then use 1.25 to 1.50 cups water in a rice cooker, then let it sit in the fridge overnight. I find the toasting makes the grains individualize yet even further. I learned that cooking Mexican cuisine. Maybe a little different for fried rice, but I like it. I'll try out y'alls and see how I like it! Thanks for the vid!

Jasmine doesn't need quite as much water as other rice. But I found level rice and add water to about ¼ inch above rice works perfectly.

Thank you for the in depth explanations of how and why you approach things the way you do. Very helpful. The wife and I really enjoy fried rice, but mine as always fallen short of expectations. With this information I may have a chance. Also, I have not been able to find the angled scraper you use along with your spatula to fluff the rice. I'd like one of those. Do you have a link for where I may find one?

I always cook the rice in the morning when doing fried rice for dinner. Spread thin on paper towels on a bread pan and leave in the refrigerator during the day to evaporate the moisture. Works perfect every time.
