About How Long to Cook Rice
Your trusted resource for accurate rice cooking times, guides, and tips.
Our Mission
To provide accurate, easy-to-follow rice cooking guides that help home cooks of all skill levels prepare perfect rice every time.
Who We Are
How Long to Cook Rice is a dedicated culinary resource focused on one thing: helping you cook rice perfectly. We understand that rice is a staple food for billions of people worldwide, and getting it right matters.
Our team consists of home cooking enthusiasts, food writers, and kitchen testing experts who have spent countless hours testing rice cooking methods across different appliances, rice varieties, and quantities.
Why We Started
We noticed a problem: conflicting information about rice cooking times scattered across the internet. One source says 15 minutes, another says 20, and another says 18. Rice package instructions often lack specifics for different cooking methods.
We created a single, authoritative resource that answers "how long to cook rice?" with accurate, tested information for:
- ●Every cooking method (stove, rice cooker, Instant Pot, microwave, and more)
- ●Every rice type (white, brown, jasmine, basmati, wild rice, and dozens more)
- ●Every quantity (from 1/2 cup to 10 cups)
