Cooking Basics

Avocado - peeling

Cut the avocado lengthwise with a knife until contact is made with the pit. Without removing the knife, make a continuous slice around the pit until the knife meets the initial incision point. Twist the two halves to separate. Strike the pit with the base part of the knife blade strong enough so that it becomes embedded and remove the pit. Use your hands to gently peel away the skin.

White rice - how to cook

1.

Rinse off any rice bran from the surface of the rice and any rice starch that attached during polishing. As it causes oxidation and sliminess, and is readily absorbed by the rice, quickly pour out the first batch of water used to rinse the rice that is cloudy from the rice bran content. This process is made easier by using an all-purpose strainer and a bowl.

2.

Rinse the rice by stirring with your hand and then discard of this water. Repeat this step 2 to 3 times until the water becomes less cloudy. Be careful not to rinse too vigorously, as doing so will damage the rice grains.
