About this dish

Hemp seeds toasted in a dry pan are cooked right in with white rice, adding a nutty aroma to an otherwise plain bowl.

Pull them off the heat the moment they start to pop lightly and darken a shade.

Instructions

6 steps

1

Rinse 300 g rice 2 to 3 times, changing the water between rinses.

Soak it in cold water for 30 minutes, then drain it in a sieve for 10 minutes.
2

Warm a dry pan over medium-low heat and spread 3 tablespoons hemp seeds in an even layer.

Stir constantly for 2 to 3 minutes, keeping the tiny seeds moving so they do not scorch in one hot spot.
3

Turn off the heat when the seeds begin to pop lightly and their color deepens slightly.

Transfer them from the hot pan to a plate and let them cool completely.
4

Put the drained rice and cooled hemp seeds in a rice cooker or pot and mix them evenly.

Dissolve 0.5 tsp salt in 360 ml water and pour it across the rice.
5

Use the normal white rice setting for a rice cooker, or the usual plain-rice method for a pot.

When cooking finishes, keep the lid closed and rest the rice for 10 minutes.
6

After resting, lift the rice from the bottom with a paddle so the hemp seeds are evenly distributed.

Divide it between two bowls while warm.
