Not really, its all trying until you find the right mix.
I've ever tried blending before I put the rice to cook...it totally
didnt work out except to make a lot of noise.
And in restaurants, they need to serve up food fast to the
customers, so it was quite a eye opener to realised how they
actually did it.
There was once, I asked for fish porridge....the stall owner merely
put in a bowl, cooked rice and sort of stirred it loose loose and
pour in the fish soup.
I was so disgusted!
I might as well ask for fish soup and rice and pour the soup in
myself!
