Jasmine Tea Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Bring 2 1/4 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Remove from heat, and add tea; cover, and let steep 5 minutes. Strain; discard tea leaves, and reserve brewed tea.
• Return brewed tea to saucepan; add salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add rice; cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook until tea has been absorbed and rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups water to a boil. Place the tea in a heatproof bowl. Cover with the hot water and steep for 5 minutes. Strain through a sieve set over the saucepan and cool.
• In a large bowl, rinse the rice with cold water until the water runs clear. Drain and add to the cooled tea. Stir in the salt and let sit for 30 minutes.
• Cover the saucepan and place over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 17 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Put the rice in a medium bowl and fill with cold water. Gently agitate the rice to loosen any dust and sediment clinging to the rice and drain through a fine mesh sieve. Repeat 2 more times.
• Transfer the rice to a medium saucepan and shake the pan to level the rice. Add enough water so that when you place the tip of your index finger on the top of the rice, the water comes up to the first crease (joint) of your finger. Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid and place over high heat. As soon as the rice comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low and cook for 20 minutes. Transfer the rice to a large bowl and fluff with a heatproof spatula.

Steps:

• Place rice in a dry saucepan over medium heat.
• Toast the rice until fragrant and lightly golden in color, stirring often, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, brew the tea in the water for 1 minute. Strain the tea.
• Add hot tea to rice in the saucepan.
• Add salt, bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer and cover. Cook for 20 minutes or until all liquid is absorbed.
• Allow the rice to rest for a few minutes.
• Fluff with a fork and garnish with green onions and almonds.
