Reply to comment by Chai_Latte_Actor in LPT: boil rice until it’s almost fully cooked, drain, then return to pan, cover and steam on low heat for 10 mins. Tastes much better than boiling, draining and serving. by circumlocutious
Meh, I just make rice in my instant pot and it comes out perfect every time.

That’s not enough tho. Boiling brings out the starch.

That’s why I always rinse it first.

I'm one of those sick individuals who actually likes microwaved pizza and its chewiness

I've heard Warframe had a surprisingly positive player base. Super helpful to newcomers.

Draining is the healthier way to cook rice: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3117313/

But draining reduces the starch.

What did you "fix"? You quoted all of what OP said, except the last bit:

Sorry brother, no can do. Play a single player game or an online one with friends if you're looking for good vibes.
As an edit: my general philosophy is to praise you when you do well and to flame you if you excessively do poorly. If you're wasting my time in the game then you're the problem and toxicity is a symptom.

You shouldn't boil the rice; you should simmer the rice. That is to say, bring it to a boil and then turn down the heat as soon as it starts to boil. This gives it more time to absorb and soften, basically combining your last two steps by not needing to drain or steam (because it steams by the end of the simmer and you haven't overcooked it by boiling the shit out of it)

Who eats parboiled rice? Disgusting. We dont presoak, we wash and use our finger knuckle for water measurement.

I like how most of the online gaming posts these past couple of days are telling day 1 players to smack lil' Timmy during Christmas matches. For every, "Welcome to all the new players!" post, there's like a dozen curb stomping meme.
