I Don't Have MINUTE RICE!

When you are baking rice dishes or casseroles, minute rice is really necessary if you don't want to have crunchy bits of inedible rice in your meal. But I hate the texture of minute rice & I refuse to buy it, so what do I do?

Minute rice is just partially cooked rice, so all you have to do is partially cook your rice before adding it to your recipe. Here's what to do:

  1. Mix your rice together with twice as much hot water in a saucepan.
  2. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer.
  3. Simmer rice for 7 minutes or half the time required to fully cook the rice.
  4. Drain well & use as a one-for-one substitute for minute rice. (If your recipe calls for 3/4 cup in cooked minute rice, use 3/4 cup partially cooked regular rice.)
