  • It’s possible, the secret ingredient is keeping an eye on it.

    Measure one cup of rice, whatever the volume of the cup is now add double the amount of water and bring to a boil. Once it starts boiling lower the heat.

    Here comes the secret ingredient, keep an eye on it. You’ll soon notice it’s not as watery anymore, but you still see bubbling. Stir and check it’s not getting stuck to the bottom. When you see the water is practically gone, remove from the heat and cover pot with lid. Let rest for 5 mins.

    Done, perfect rice!

    If it’s starting to get stuck to the bottom, removing and letting it rest with a lid on for a few minutes usually helps in unsticking it and making it fluffier.

    If you didn’t keep an eye on it well enough and it’s burning at the bottom, remove immediately and transfer as much of the unburnt rice to another pot, cover and let it rest. (Add water to the burnt bottom in the original pot and cover as well, it will help with the cleaning)











  • Wow you are the success story I needed to hear. I’ve been struggling with depression and unemployment for more than a year, and recently got a plebe job at Famous Retail Chain. I did some therapy and it helped but I’m now running out of government support for it so I won’t be able to afford it anymore. I’m considering a psychologist online in my country of origin which would be substantially cheaper.


  • I’ve seen these and they are not ants and I don’t believe they’re larvae.

    They are not ants because their body shape and legs shape don’t conform to typical ant morphology, and also they don’t behave like ants. They resemble miniature termites and behave more like silverfish or cockroaches, although they are clearly neither of those.

    They are not larvae because they do have legs and move (relatively ) quite fast. I’ve never seen other insects of a similar size and shape which could be the adult form nearby. I’ve no idea what kind of bug they are though, I’ll be following this post in case someone has an answer.
