To cook the grain rice better, please refer to the following details:
1. Pre-soak: Most grains, such as brown rice, quinoa, oats, etc., require a long time to absorb water. You can soak the grains in advance for 3 to 4 hours, or even overnight, which will make the grains easier to cook;
2. Cook separately: Since whole grains take longer to cook, you can choose to cook them separately. Cook the whole grains first, and then add the rice when they are almost cooked;
3. Use a pressure cooker: A pressure cooker can shorten the cooking time and allow both grains and rice to be heated evenly, making it easier to cook them at the same time;
4. Adjust the ratio: If you like the taste of rice and grains mixed together, you can try to adjust the ratio, increase the proportion of rice and reduce the proportion of grains, so that even if the grains are not fully cooked, the taste will not be affected too much;
5. Choose easy-to-cook whole grains: Some whole grains are easier to cook, such as pearl rice, millet, etc. You can choose these to pair with rice;
6. Cooking time: Depending on the type of grains and your preferred taste, extend the cooking time appropriately to ensure that the grains are cooked.
By using the above methods, you can cook delicious and healthy multi-grain rice. Remember to adjust according to the type of multi-grain and personal taste when cooking to find the cooking method that suits you best.
