Korean Purple Rice or Black Rice (Heukmi Bap)

Step 1

In the pot, measure and add white rice and black rice.

Step 2

Rinse rice by adding water until rice is totally immersed and there's extra water on top. Wash rice well with your hands as if needing a dough. Slowly drain rice water out without spilling the rice out. Repeat at least 1 -2 more times.

Step 3

With all the excess water drained and discarded, add fresh water into the pot.

Step 4

fill water to regular rice water line. Rule of thumb in cooking rice is 1:1 rice to water ratio.

Step 5

Set rice cooker to regular rice cooking time. It was 45 min. on my Cuchen rice cooker.

Step 6

Add same amount of water as the rice. e.g. If total of black and white rice is 2 cups, then add 2 cups water.

Step 7

Set IP to manual HIGH to 9 minutes. Let it natural release for at least 5 min. then you can manually release. If you add more black rice, increase the cooking time.
