Ahoy mateys! The rain has not stopped since last night and it is still going strong. Might as well I guess as today is really cooking day. Our international dinner is tonight and as Canada is quite multicultural (i.e. lacking a sense of food identity aside from maple syrup), I am making fried rice. That's the great thing about being Canadian - you usually have some other cultural identity to fall back to (unless it's about hockey, then I'm 100% team Canada).
So far, I am making rice out of a plastic bag and boiling water. It's amazing how people cope without rice cookers.
Anyhoo, wish me luck. Among my *long* list of accomplishments, cooking has never really made it on the list.
That's the most hardcore rice-cooking method I've ever heard of. I'm proud of you :D
ReplyDeleteMy first international dinner, I got stumped at what to make so I (not proud but fun neither the less) joined the American side in making mini burgers, mac and cheese, and corndogs. Canadians eat those too, right?
ReplyDeleteI also made fried rice for a group dinner one time and it turned out bad since it was my first time making rice in a pot! Came out all mushy. Hope your bag method works great, otherwise make congee!
Haha, it was not good because the rice was too moist. Fried rice is suppose to be stale rice so the egg sticks better. And easier to "fry". But the rice itself was pretty ok.
