From the Zedium Podcast Network, it's Fletchfallen and Haley's Little Bit of Pod. Welcome to A Little Bit of Pod. I have a... This might even be a hack. Oh, okay. I probably should have left this to Shannon. But it's something I've tried so I feel I can tout it as my own. I was making rice.

Now, I'm fucking awful at cooking rice. Why? Awful. I'm so good at it. I can't do it. And I don't use a rice cooker. I'm a real person. You go in a pot.

Absorption method? Yeah, I do one in 1.5 and I just put it in and a bit of salt. A rice cook and it's perfect every time. You bring it to boil, then you turn it off and then you just... I've got to find a better way of doing the instant pot. The instant pot has a rice cooking setting, but it leaves it gluggy. Is that it me? Am I not washing my rice enough?

No, you're not too much water. No, it's one for one in the instant pot. You're one for one in instant pot. Because no one and five in it. Well, it shouldn't be gluggy. It's a little gluggy. I need to get a little bit of... I'm a fluff.

There's one of those sustain the microwave rice. They're actually not bad. Are they? Yeah. Just get a pot for God's sake and cook some rice. Or just get those 40 second plastic. Dude, they fucking rule. They're fucking rule.

A minute 30 and you've got delicious rice. Or a whole packet. So in an effort too, because that's the other thing. You can get like a 5K bag of rice for a dollar or a 200 gram 90 second guy for a dollar. And you're just like the same price for so much more rice. I'll try cooking it myself. Yeah. And I want to get better at it.

because if I'm not good at something in life, I want to get better at it, okay? Yeah, you've got to work hard to be better. Do you want to borrow my rice cooker? Maybe that could be it. No, I've got to learn how to use what I've got. Okay. You've got a pot and you've got water.

Here's what I did. Yeah. Instead of water, I used chicken stock. Oh, fuck off, here we go. My fucking dude and dude. Here we go. Just the best. I mean, maybe not.

Maybe, maybe not. If you were having a curry, maybe you want the plain rice. But if you're just having rice as part of like a plate of veg, rice, and meat. I've got to say chicken stock rice. It's fucking 10 out of 10. It's like chicken chicken flavored noodles. Rice is my favourite carbohydrate.

I know quite a controversial stance. I've never thought of this. I do know I was thinking of cooking rice tonight. I might cook. I might cook. I might do this. So you'll put a bit of garlic in. A bit of garlic's nice. When you're cooking your rice. What are you doing? It's also nice. Butter.

Butter, yes. Exactly how our Asian four bearers. Wanted us to eat it. With a lot of butter. With a big glove of butter in the middle. froth a bit of dairy in their eyes. But it's like I saw this woman online who made for Kasha bread, but instead of just water, she added chicken stock.

And now she had chicken-flavored bread. Now, where has that been? We should be putting chicken stock instead of water and everything. Yeah, exactly. Like our coffees. Like our coffees. Or our babies drink bottles. Like our Raroes.

Yes. Chicken Raro. Chicken Raro. Or in Coca-Cola. Yes. Yum. Chicken co. We water our plants.

That's chicken stock. They probably really like that. And our dams. And our dams. Yes, our showers. And our spa palms. Everything, man. Yeah, and our eye wash.

Yes, and our mouth garboh. Let's wash our faces and brush our teeth with chicken stock.
