Good Morning America!

Take a amount of rice. Add twice the amount of water. Let the rice soak a bit and then cook it.Perfect rice is made. Fool proof method I’d say. No better method could exist. This is what I saw my mother do for all of my life.

I was introduced to some Sri Lankans who measured the required amount of water with their little finger. The rice turned out just as well. To use that little finger so industrially I was convinced you needed to be a Sri lankan. I couldn’t have ever done it.

Then of course, Filipinos happened to me. They believe a girl is ready to get married when she can get her rice right.My deliberations would crack up my Filipino friends.They wash the rice fill the container with as much water that takes their fancy do a slight waving motion and voila rice is ready.Each grain separated, well cooked and beautiful.

There is always a thin line between what you know you can do and do it right; and what you didn’t know but you could still do it, if only you believed in yourself.

Go for it.Reach the stars I say.There is always more than one way to cook the rice right. 🙂
