Ingredients

How to make it

  • Roast the uncooked white rice in a cast-iron pan or heavy wok, over low to medium heat.
  • Stir frequently to evenly brown to a rich dark color. This takes about 10-15 minutes.
  • If the grains are browning too quickly or unevenly, the heat is too high – lower accordingly. Slow roasting yields a more fragrant and less gritty result, as the grains brown not only on the outside, but cook through to the interior.
  • The grains pick up a lot of heat. Let the rice cool before grinding to a fine powder in a clean coffee grinder. Do not grind too fine, as it should have some texture and not just be dust.
  • If you're not patient the hot rice will melt the plastic lid of your grinder!
  • The picture is of a commercial brand you might find at an asian grocery store.
