It's easy to cook perfect Basmati Rice . Rice maybe a simple food , but learning how to cook it properly is tricky. Basmati is a fragrant , nutty , tasting long grain rice grown in the Pakistan . The key to making basmati rice that is light , tender and fluffy is to rinse it first , otherwise the rice will be gummy and sticky together. I wanted to share my mother method that I have been using for decades on how to cook long grain rice. Use of vinegar helps in keeping rice separate.
