Realized I've been making rice completely wrong for 20 years
Switched from boiling it like pasta to the absorption method last week after a friend called my rice 'dirty socks'. Now my stir-fry budget meals taste like they cost twice as much and I'm mad at myself for all that wasted rice.
I used to be one of those people who swore by the stovetop method. Took me a miserable 45 minutes every single time. Then my neighbor showed me a simple rice cooker and I never looked back.
