1. Read the Passage given below:
1. Who does not know how to cook rice? cooking rice hardly takes time said my father. So I challenged
myself. I switched form news to you tube and typed . - how to cook rice?" I took one and a half cups of
rice. Since I didn't I have access to a rice cooker, I put the rice in a big pot. Firstly, the rice has to be
washed to get rid of dust and starch. I thought I won't be able to drain the rice and that it will fall out of the
pot. I observed the chef as I swirled the rice around and used my dexterous hands to drain it, not once, not
twice, but three times. I looked down at the sink and saw less than 50 grains that made their way out of
the pot suffice to say, I was up to the mark_
2 The video stated that the key to perfect rice is equal amounts of rice and water. I have heard that
professionals don't need to measure everything, they just know what the right amount is. But as this way
my first time in the kitchen, I decided to experiment by not measuring the water needed for boiling the rice.
I wanted the rice to be firm when bitten,Just like pasta I don't enjoy the texture of mushy rice. It has to
have that chutzpah, it has to resist my biting power just for a bit before disintegrating.
3. After what seemed like 10 minutes, all the water disappeared. I went to give it a good stir. To my
surprise, some of the rice got stuck to the pot. I tried to scrape it off but to no avail. At the same time.
there was a burning smell coming from it. I quickly turned the stove off. "What have you done to the
Kitchen?' shouted Mother, while coming towards the kitchen. I managed to ward her off.
4. Finally when the time come to taste my creation, I was surprised! It was not bad at all. The rice had the
desired consistency. Sure a little more salt would have been better, but I just added that while eating. The
experience was fairly rewarding and memorable. It taught me a new sense of respect for those who cook
food on a regular basis at home or engage in gourmet creations professionally.
