purple rice

Korean Purple Rice

short grain white rice

Tbsp black glutinous rice

water

Put the rice into the rice cooker inner pot and rinse the rice until the water is clear. (You will need to do 3 to 4 rounds of rinsing.) Drain the water well.

Cover the rice with the water (1:1 ratio) and close the lid. Set the rice cooker to &quot;baekmi” setting. If your Cuckoo has an English mode, it may say “glutinous rice”.

Wait until the rice cooks and switch to the keep warm setting. It takes 23-26 mins to complete. Fluff the rice with the rice paddle. Serve or store it for later. (Refer below for storage guide)

USING IH KOREAN RICE COOKER (CUCKOO)

Put the rice into the inner pot of the instant pot and rinse the rice until the water is clear. (You will need to do 3 to 4 rounds of rinsing.) Drain the water well.

Cover the rice with the water (rice to water ratio is 1 :1) and set the instant pot to “pressure cook” at high pressure. Turn off the “keep warm” function. Set the timer to 3 mins and wait until the rice cooks.

Natural release the steam for 10 minutes then quick release the residual pressure. (There shouldn’t be much pressure left by then.) FYI, the whole cooking cycle takes about 24 mins to complete. 

Open the lid and fluff the rice quickly with the rice paddle. Serve or store it for later. (Refer below for storage guide) If you leave the rice in the pot for too long, it will start stick to the bottom of the pot.

USING INSTANT POT

Put the rice into the mixing bowl and rinse the rice until the water is clear. (You will need to do 3 to 4 rounds of rinsing.) Drain the water well.

Transfer the rice into a pot and add the water. (Add 1.21 times more water compared to the rice weight (approx 1 : 1.125 volume ratio) as more steam evaporates in the pot.)

Bring the pot to boil over medium high heat until the water is boiling. (It will takes 8-9 mins). Reduce the heat to medium then boil for a further 6-7 mins. Then gradually reduce the heat to low and simmer for another 5 mins. While you may be very tempted, do not open the lid during boiling at any stage as it will throw off the water evaporation rate.

Remove the pot from the stove and rest it for 15 mins (with lid still on). The rice is still cooking!

Open the lid and fluff the rice with the rice paddle. Serve or store it for later. (Refer below for storage guide)

USING STOVETOP

Riceberry is a hybrid Thai rice that's nutrient dense and yet it cooks just like regular Jasmine rice. With a stunning purple hue and savory flavor, it's being billed as the next superfood. But does it live up to the hype?

Riceberry

Riceberry (about 1 US cup)

water (1 2/3 US cups)

Add the riceberry and water to a heavy bottomed pot. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil.

When you see a steady stream of steam escaping from the lid, turn down the heat until you don't see much steam escaping and set the timer for 20 minutes.

When the timer goes off, turn off the heat and let the Riceberry steam for another 10 minutes without opening the lid.

After the rice is done steaming, remove the lid, and use a rice paddle or spoon to fluff the Riceberry and serve.

All About Riceberry

Have you ever had purple sticky rice before? If not, you’re in for a fun treat! Today, I’m going to show you how to make purple sticky rice, a beautiful and tasty glutinous Thai rice. You only need 3 ingredients to make purple sticky rice. White and black stick rice and water.&nbsp;

How to make purple sticky rice

white sticky/sweet/glutinous rice

black sticky/sweet/glutinous rice

Water rice

Combine both rice in a medium-sized bowl.&nbsp;Add the water, and use your clean hands to mix the black and white rice until the rice are evenly combined. Watch the water&nbsp;turn light lavender. It’s magic! (: Let it soak for at least 5 hours. Longer is ideal.

Drain the dark purple water from the rice and rinse in water 2 more times until the water is somewhat clear. See how beautiful the rice is with the violet hue!

Fill the bottom of your steamer with enough water to boil your rice for 20-25 minutes. Make sure the water is not touching the bottom of the rice at all, or it will turn the rice soggy. Wet the cheesecloth, place it in the center of the steamer, and put the drained rice in it.

Wrap the cheesecloth completely around the rice. Place a lid over the cheesecloth, turn the stovetop to high heat, and start the steaming process. You can use any steaming tool you have. See notes on tools used to steam sticky rice.&nbsp;

After 20-25 minutes, the rice is ready. Let cool for 5 minutes. Carefully remove it from the hot cheesecloth to a rice basket or a medium-sized serving container, spread the rice around evenly, and let it cool for 5-10 more minutes before serving. I usually sprinkle a little salt on it before rolling the rice with my fingers into whopper-sized balls. Sample it before serving. Take note of the sweet smell of the rice, too—it’s such an aromatic and comforting smell! Enjoy your fun and beautiful purple sticky rice!

So good!!! Moist and perfect textured purple sticky rice!  A lovely and colorful way to add to my meal.  Loved the cheesecloth too…yummy purple sticky rice!

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

If using a rice cooker -

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.

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.&nbsp;
