When is the best time to add salt when cooking?
When I cook rice I add the salt after the water with the rice has come to a boil. I have heard that addition of salt when boiling foods slows some of the minerals down from leaving the food...

How do you warm rice?
This process works for me: 1) Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the rice from the container it was stored in and spread in a thin layer in the pan. Heat the rice for about a minute until it is warm to the touch or you can hear a crackle or two. 2) Add a few tablespoons of warm water to the pan and evaporate the water (about 2-3 minutes), then stir. Repeat until the rice has the temperature and consistency you are looking for (for me this is after about five minutes total cooking time for basmati or regular rice, short grain rice takes a little longer and a little more water). Be conservative with the water, you can always add more and evaporate. But if there is too much water in the pan to begin with the rice will be mushy.

How to stop rice sticking in rice cooker?
Depends what rice you`re using. Thai sticky rice is quite glutinous and is supposed to be a bit sticky. Also sushi rice is quite sticky. If you`re using long grain, basmati or similar and its turning sticky you may be overcooking it, cooking it in too much water or not washing it thoroughly before cooking. I cook my basmati in double the volume of water to rice (no more). Bring to the boil and turn down to the lowest heat, cover and let the rice absorb the water for 10-15 minutes. By that time the rice should be cooked with no excess water at the bottom of the pan. And no stickiness!
Identify appropriate times for adding seasoning ingredients in the cooking process?
whatever you are cooking you should add the seasoning ingredients when the food is most absorbent, that way the food absorbs the seasoning, for example, if you are cooking rice you add the seasoning when the rice starts poofing up or changing texture into a more soft one. it would help to add a little bit of water with the seasoning to your food that way you can see when the water has been absorbed that your seasoning has been absorbed. at the end if it not tasty enough for you,you can always add some salt and match up with some chili, or some sugar.
What is the meaning of water drained from cooked rice?
It simply means that the rice has not absorbed all the water it has cooked in. Taste your rice, if it is still hard you can add a small amount of boiling water to the rice and continue cooking. If the rice is cooked and soft then simply drain off the excess water, allow the rice to rest, fluff and serve.
Do you add water to the pan when cooking sausage in the oven?
