costco rice

[theGlove]

was trying ot save a few bucks by going with the white rice at costco. Biggest mistake!
the rice is terrible, its so dry and makes everything taste bad.
Well just a warning to anybody thinking about buying the rice at costco

I think the wetness of the rice is largely dependent on how you prepare it..

 

[SparkyJJO]

White rice sucks anyway.

 

[Vehemence]

Well it's like 47lbs for $2, what do you expect

Possibly, the rice is OK but your rice-preparing skills are lacking? Just possibly.

If you double the water and it turns out the same as half the water, then you are doing something wrong.

That's what I thought too. Try a different chef next time.

definitely user error

next time use more water?

rice is cheap enough at the Asian market, why not get it from there?

Dry rice = overcooked.

 

[theGlove]

lol ok ill let you all find out the hard way. been cooking rice for 15 years now, i know how to cook rice

A) Which rice at costco? They have more than one variety.

B) What rice are you using for comparison? Making "real" rice is slightly more intricate than Uncle Ben's minute rice.

If you call boiling water intricate then what do you think about rocket science?

Right. The Jasmine Basmati rice in the burlap sack is what we get and it's great stuff.

That's what she said.

Add a stick of butter. That fixes everything.

costco rice isn't the best but it's far from the worst I've tasted. I've been to chinese resturants that use far worse rice.
