If the pot burns after cooking rice, pour water into it and let it soak. To make it soak faster, you can place it on the stove and boil it. After that, clean it thoroughly. I use a wire scrubber to scrub it, and it comes out sparkling clean.
whenever I see them eating this rice in Korean dramas I'm just like I don't get it its just fucking rice but it looks so soft and fluffy and I just wanna stuff my face with it
In my country the burnt rice at the bottom of the pot it's called concon and we fight over it because it's just delicious! Greetings form the Dominican Republic!
Dear Maangchi, thank you so much for teaching me how to properly cook rice! I started hating rice at some point because I was adding so much water to it to prevent it from burning that it would always turn out too watery and mushy. It was so relieving knowing that it actually should burn a little, but to know that you can actually eat that burned part and even make tea afterwards was a delight. I just made all three and enjoyed myself thoroughly. I am forever grateful!
When I was a child my mother would make rice balls (onigiri) with the burnt rice flavored with a little shoyu. She made just enough for her and me, our secret treat! Thank you for recalling that nice memory with your own story. She passed away in 2007 and I still miss her.
I’m Cuban and we call the burned part Raspa. We love it! My mom’s favorite part of the rice. We cook rice, one part rice, one part water and then just a bit more water (about 1/4 cup) we mix bit of salt to taste, 1 teaspoon olive oil, high heat, when it starts to boil, cover and lower heat. Always perfect!
OMG! THE RICE IS SO FLUFFY! I thought my brother was going to be the only one in the family able to make rice like that, but now I can make a bento with that rice! Thank you, you've got yourself a new subscriber! Thank you!
I like the way you filming with, the clearer vision, the comfortable colors of your kitchen that make us very calm when we watch you and finally I like your accent It's very AMAZING, you make me wanna watch every video even I’m not going to cooking, please keep on =)♡
In India we always mix the rice and gravy together before eating.. we definitely have a side dish (fry) while having our meal.. and if rice sticks to the bottom of the pot, we are sure to get scoldings from mom 😁 Love from INDIA!!!🤗
In Puerto Rico people eat a lot of rice, the only thing is that we make it different from you, when we add the water we add a little salt and a little oil. And it tastes delicious. And we also make yellow rice with pigeon peas.
LOL, i give my hubby extra rice, so i can scrape the bottom of my rice cooker for the burnt part. i dont share, i just tell him it is too crispy for him. lOL!!
It's a famous snack. Some foods have burnt rice as one of the highlights of the food. Tahchin is an example of it. It's a famous Iranian dish and I recommend you try it
Bulgarian caption was submitted by one of my viewers! Thanks a lot! This video has so far captions in 9 different languages. All were done by my volunteer translators. Wonderful!
i love rice sm but in Turkey we fry the rice first with some salt and some cooking oil or butter, then we add the water and wait for it to cook until the water is all gone:) also i like to mix my rice with my salad a lot, i recommend it if you never tried that
OMG, Maangchi you're such a lifesaver!! I've always had trouble making rice, unless it was parboiled, so many times I've picked up this kind of rice only to fail at making it. Tried your method today and it worked, best rice ever. Thanks Maangchi, you're awesome!
In Brazil we fry the rice with garlic, onion and salt, and then we cook with hot water. I usually put more water to cook a sticky rice. Maybe my favourite food in the world!
Camila Pontes .Brasil...é nós eu pensava q não ia encontrar brasileiros por aqui kkk...que pena q eu ainda não sei inglês pra poder entender o q ela fala TT .
Yes that's how I make my rice (I'm Mexican by the way). We are taught that burned rice is always bad, it means you don't know how to cook. It surprised me so much how she told us to let the rice stick to the bottom of the pot.
From where I live in the Philippines, we only eat the cooked steamed rice part as kids....but our grandparents and parents always teach us to eat the burnt bottom (the rice that sticked with the pot) and they told me that that part of the rice is "nana del kanon" which is in my language means "mother of cooked rice"....my parents told me that without that part, the rice wont get cooked, and that the rice wouldn't be a cooked rice without the others getting burned a bit below the cooked or steamed ones..That's why it is still important and it should be eaten too...... From then I usually eat the kind of hard bit burnt part of cooked rice. It is especially good with hot soup, so the soup can soak it and it wont be much hard to eat and swallow. It is also taught by elders to be eaten to also teach us to appreciate farmer's work and hard work, as well as to respect food and don't waste food especially rice, and to not waste our parents' money in buying rice and their effort in cooking for us. Rice is always a staple food in the Philippines along with other staples like corn, sweet potato, plantain, and cassava. I just got shocked that in Korea, they even make a tea out of the burnt cooked rice residue in the pot.....because we don't do that here. :) but nice to know about our different cultures on cooking rice.
I am Successful i'm from a province in the philippines. kababayan... it's different from what is shown in the video bur we have burnt uncooked rice drink (roasted uncooked rice drink) if instant coffee is not available. the elders prefer most this type of drink than coffee.
In India esp north region "mother of cooked rice" part called you don't know how to cook rice,means you need practice to not let rice stick to the pan or charred rice..this is totally new for me but I can try only for myself..
I’m from the Ph, too and our elders love to eat that burnt part of the rice, sprinkled with water. Some also like to eat cold rice especially as snack before evening.
nurungji is so delicious! when i learned to cook, my mom told me never to stir the rice because it would stick to the bottom of the pot, and for some reason this was supposed to be bad. now, i stir my rice on purpose to get the bottom a little burnt 😱😄 how times change 😆 i showed this to my mom and she also liked nurungji very much. Thank you, Maangchi!
My grandmother yells at me if I let the rice stick to the bottom...I'm mexican btw, and she says that a woman who "burns" the rice is not good for marriage ahaha but still my rice is getting better and better and it doesnot stick to the pot (:
I used a rice-cooker all my life until I moved to Europe. I found it really difficult to make rice over the stove. Then I discovered your video and tried your method. Voila! Perfect rice and happiness! Thank you Maangchi!
My dad worked in a Korean church for almost 20 years. I grew up with their food and I love it! My favorite thing will always be the purple rice and the shaved ice with sweet bean♥️
I'm Iranian and we call the burnt rice "tahdig" which means bottom of the pot. Typically some pita bread or thin potato slices are added to the bottom with a generous amount of oil but you can also just eat it as is.
Maangchi my rice cooker stopped working yesterday and my stomach was sad about not getting any rice! But then, I remembered about your rice recipe and I gave it a try. The rice came out great! Thank you!!
I am so so glad I stumbled upon this channel. Before now, I had been taught that the normal way to cook rice was basically the same method used in that BBC cooking show. I had literally grown up with that method! Never knew it was wrong and could never figure out why my rice was always either soggy or undercooked whenever I cooked rice myself that wasn't a re-packaged, microwave, uncle bens type rice. Now I know better!! Just tried this method for the first time and I'm so proud of the results! SO FLUFFY!!!! Going to try the nurunji and make the tea now as I've never tried either before. :D Thank you Maangchi!
In Dominican Republic as well as other Hispanic countries we call nurungji "concon" or "rapa" . We eat it as a side dish too every time we make all kind of rice recipes. It is funny how far Korea is from Latin America but we still share some things. Great video. Thanks.
in Bali, we called the rice snack as 'entip' we often serve it with shreded coconut and a little bit of sugar. It's tastes heavenly for my sweet tooth :p
I went to a Korean restaurant and they served rice water. my friend hated it but I loved it! now I know how to make it! (yesterday I went to a market to buy all of the ingredients I needed for delicious korean foods!)
@@varelabelsoffical im assuming they may have just been using instant rice instead of the other types of rice???? I'm pretty sure they would've noticed the taste for sure if they were using the rice u need to wash 💀but i could be extremely wrong about my hunch idk
I am Dominican and in my country the nurunji is called CONCON. here we get crazy about it and if someone forgets to take it out or add water to the pot before of taking it out is considered a bad thing. we even have a comediant that says: the women that throw my CONCON i leav her!.
when we are taking it out of the pot we call it, raspar el concon, when my aunt cooks she says, hey go to raspar the concon before someone else do it because they'll eat it all! jajajjaj
I love this video thank you so much ! I'm from Dominican Republic and the bottom rice we usually eat it everyday we call it ( concon) so it's nice to see that you also eat it in Korea. We usually get really mad if someone eat it or throw away the concon.
Waouh !!! Thank you Maangchi!!! We also do the bap and the nurungji en Dominican Republic, but with oil. With you I just learned how to do it without oil, and enjoy the infusion too!! 🤗
To all Indians This is Korean food channel. Not Indian food channel. This is Korean food. Not Indian food. She is Korean. Not Indian. Koreans eat plain rice. They DO NOT add season or oil when they cook rice and they DO NOT use long grain rice. They don't farm them actually.
In Turkey, we add some milk butter in rice and cooked with that. And usually we use homemade chicken broth or meat broth. it gives flavor to turkish rice(pilav).
I will definitely try this! In Germany we normaly cook Rice in little plastic bags and I’m used to it since I was a little kid. But I find it still a little strange, so I tried to improve my cooking skills. I’m sure with your tips I can master the perfect rice 🍚 Thank you so much!
My parents are Iranian and we call the 'burnt' part of the rice on the bottom 'tahdig', I personally don't like the rice version but I absolutely love it when my mum puts bread on the bottom!!! My mum soaks the rice and then adds it to boiling water, drains it when it is half cooked and then before adding the rice to the empty pot she puts some oil and then the bread! SOOOOO GOOD!!
Maangchi's method is superb! The rice, nurungji, and tea are all so good. I used spend so much effort scratching off the burned rice at the bottom of the pan, and Maangchi's secret - just a splash of water solved my problem! The nurungji came off in a whole piece with little effort! Thank you for sharing this, Maangchi!
In Chinese households, my dad cooked this way, too. We loved the bottom hard rice. Scrape it up, sprinkle soy sauce and butter. Yum!! No waste. Or after eating the soft rice, we could add a little water and make warm rice water to drink after the meal.
Good morning Mama Maangchi, I just want to thank you and show you my appreciation. My husband and I wanted to loose weight for health reason. Ever since I started your home cooking recipes we lost 5 lbs already by just cooking at home. Thank you so very much!!!
Just made rice this way and it came out perfect! Much less starchy tasting than when I normally fix it! My burnt rice didn't come out as a patty lol I think I didn't leave enough at the bottom for it to form right. It was still pretty tasty though. 😉 The tea was absolutely delicious!! Very soothing! My family loved it too. I expected it to taste more burnt but it was so mild and relaxing. I don't think i'll ever fix rice differently. Thank you Maangchi!
In Jamaica we call Nurungji, 'Bun Bun'. It is very good and crunchyand we often eat it with many types of gravys, like curry gravy, oxtail, pork etc. When rice is left for the next day, I personally wait for the 'Bun Bun'. It's like a reward😁
this brings back so many memories with my grandma when i was a little kid,i would sit on the kitchen table while she would be making rice,when she was done she would give me the scorched rice to snack on
in Indonesia we call the burn rice is intip,,, intip we can sundried until very very dry and after that we fry in hot oil until crispy and you can sprinkle little salt afterwards it turn out into delicious crispy snacks
In Brazil, we crush the garlic, let it fry in oil until golden, add the rice, a spoon of salt and water. I will definitely try to do it the korean way. 😊
I also loved the burnt rice snack which my mother made.. I asked an Iranian about it's recipe. I was told that it was complicated. Now, I have learnt it in a Korean way..Hurray!
My mom does what your grandma did with secretly giving you food. She would always add the ingredients that I love more into my bowl, and when I think of yummy food I always think of her food. When you cook it reminds me of how my mom is with my food.
Just made this and it was amazing! Unfortunately my nurungji wouldn't lift all off in one circle, and instead broke into pieces, but it was delicious and easier to eat :) Thank you for the great videos!
I always love to watch maangchi. I'm frequently wowed by her amazing cooking talent, but I don't get the tea in this clip. I usually get flabbergasted if I burn my rice or pot. I could have never imagined turning the burnt pot bottom into tea. Wow!
I am an Arab Muslim girl from the continent of Africa. We have a lot of various traditional dishes, including rice. We cook it with a sauce dedicated to it with meat and put it on top of the rice and we enjoy it very much. ♥🇩🇿
Oh wow I didn't know you can actually eat the burnt part of the rice. In my country nobody eats that, in fact, the goal is to never get the rice to burn in the bottom so we use a lot of water. 🤔 One's trash, another's treasure is once again accurate. Lol
In Indonesia, we called Nurungji as Kerak nasi atau intip. It's very delicious with sambal or simply springle of salt. And yes, in some countrysides, we drink boiled water from the same pot.
