This Is The Way To Boil Rice Recipe

I recommend you to buy Patna rice, as it is the cheapest; it is best to

soak it in water over-night, as it then requires less time to boil it,

and moreover, when soaked, the rice becomes lighter, from the fact that

the grains separate more readily while boiling. Put the rice on to boil

in plenty of cold water, stirring it from the bottom of the saucepan

occasionally while it is boiling fast; when the grains separate at the

ends, and thus appear to form the letter X, the rice will be done; it

requires about half an hour's gentle boiling. When the rice is done,

drain it in a colander, and place it before the fire, stirring it now

and then with a fork.
