Rice is the most widely consumed cereal grain on the planet. It accounts for about 20% of all calories consumed by human beings.

It is also very time efficient. Unlike bread or chapathis, rice consuming households tend to spend lesser time in the kitchen because you can cook a large amount of rice in one shot!

In this video, I collaborate with Aruna Vijay, Masterchef finalist (Top 4) (https://www.instagram.com/aruna_vijay...) to break down the most important food science elements of rice that will make you a better cook.

You can also read the entire chapters of the science of rice and the science of making Biryani in the new illustrated edition of my book:
