my wife is Japanese, we met in Tokyo and live in NYC now. will share some of her insistences (I call them that because they're not really secrets, just what she insists on when it comes to rice).
1. Rice has to be kept in the refrigerator until it is cooked, no exceptions (bug problem sorted).
2. Only Japanese rice, nothing else is palatable (after five years in Japan I'm firmly in this camp, Japanese rice is really best outside of, like, yellowed saffron long-grain rice for Mexican food, and even then when I cook at home J-rice is great cause it can help to really hold a corn tortilla taco together). Absolutely no fricking jasmine rice, anything Indian smelling or Chinese tasting, or really anything southeast Asian. Japanese are Asian, sure, but you've never met a group of people who hate Southeast Asian food more than Japanese outside of Japanified versions of Indian curry (with Japanese rice, of course) and tantanmen/mabodoff (about as much of Chinese food as any Japanese actually likes, again, heavily altered to fit Japanese tastes so no heavy spices).
3. You have to wash Japanese rice, there's no question or debate about it, because the starch will bubble up otherwise and make a huge mess, especially if you're using a rice cooker which will start to bubble up on the top vent and make a huge mess on the outside, which brings us to the next point.
4. You have to use a rice cooker. If you don't own a rice cooker, you're a fricking idiot. Stop trying to find other things to use a rice cooker for. Stop caring about whatever extra little trays come with the rice cooker to steam veggies, for example. Just stop. Get an expensive, high quality rice cooker that makes a frick-ton at a time, and use it to cook rice. Don't be a poorgay.
5. Get a large number of small, freezer friendly tupperware containers and make very large batches of rice to then store multiple one serving batches in and put them in the freezer. Never the refrigerator, you might get sick.
my coworkers in Japan would pack 2 kilo bags of rice for 1 month business trips to China, Taiwan, and the US. you're naïve if you think this thinking is limited to her lmao, Japanese people like Japanese things.
yes, literally every household in Japan freezes small amounts of cooked rice to be grabbed and used for bentos. it is literally no big deal at all, but please, your culture shock is amusing.
a proper rice cooker is going to be capable of making enough rice at one time for literally dozens of lunches. this is largely a convenience/mealprep thing, it's just extremely convenient to always have a side of rice ready to be defrosted, and when I say "bento", you should realize that I'm referring to portability, people don't eat "bentos" at fricking home, the point being they're not going to be home when they're eating the bento. it's so you always have rice to throw into your bento box before you head off to work (and typically people will have that shit ready to go the night before, again often using saved rice). if you want to time meals in a rice cooker, why cook it first? just wash rice in the morning, put it in the machine with water, close the airtight lid, set the time, and at 6:30pm it'll magically turn on and cook perfectly for when you arrive back home around 7:30 (trying to be realistic with commute/overtime here because very few J-companies actually allow their employees to leave at 5).
I'm not going to eat my shawarma with frickin Japanese rice. Japanese rice is best for Japanese things and maybe some Japanese fusion shit. I'm not going to eat middle eastern or Mexican or even Indian food with frickin Japanese rice
hey man, Japan exists, I lived in Tokyo for five years covering financial markets, there's some interesting things to learn there, call me a weeb all you want but just remember I spent some of my best years fricking the kind of girls you dream about and learned all about Japanese food at the same time. your projection that I would only talk about this shit because of anime is pretty amusing, though.
you aren't the only person to go to japan. I lived there twice and you don't see me obsessing over it. I creampied tokyo bawds all the time from places like club atom in shibuya.
you're just a homosexual about it
uh huh, yeah, totally, we both totally fricked a lot of girls in Japan, collectively, between you and me, just fricked so many Japanese girls, yeah, got it. great talk dork.

This has to be bait.
Japnaese medium grain rice is good. I have some in my pantry now. But basmati is also good. and so is sticky rice. they all are good for specific things/dishes
just pick them out when you're washing it or eat them for extra protein (it's considered vegan because those dumb shits wandered into your food themselves)
Two ways it's done with rice and flour for provisioning boats for long term voyages:
1. Add a couple of *fresh* bay leaves to keep bugs out
2. Pack the food in a Tupperware or zip lock container with a small chunk of dry ice in the bottom and burp the excess gasses as it vaporized and displaces all the oxygen, when it's done any eggs/bugs already in it can't live on pure CO2.
unopened rice can be stored in a sterilite container just fine at room temp.
any leftovers in a opened bag can just be stuffed in a ziploc baggie, and placed back into said container.
t. grew up poor, but problems weren't uncommon. little bugs in the grains was one of them, and the above solution resolved it.
they're already in the rice, tbh. They lay eggs inside the rice and then they get bagged up
this or properly store your rice
He cute fr fr
This.
he bussin nocap
befriend a spider and ask for a shitload of rice-grain-sized silk bags.
You vill eat ze bugs
If I ever see Klaus Schwab in person I will stab him in the throat repeatedly.
