      It’s like coffee. There are troglodytes out there who will tell you instant is just as good as anything else.

        I learned that if you make freshly ground coffee in an aeropress you can actually enjoy just drinking it black without feeling line you’re eating charcoal. I couldn’t fathom how people could drink it black before.

      If you put in less water than the rice needs, it will result in a chewier texture, like undercooked pasta. Too much water, and it will cook down too much, become gluey and mushy. Perfectly cooked rice is incredible, and I didn’t realize how good plain rice could be til I was an adult and had it prepared correctly.
