Chicken Fat Rice




Thomas J. Story
RICE
 4 cups jasmine rice
 6 cups water
SEASONING
 ½ cup rendered chicken fat
 1 tbsp butter
 1 tbsp annatto oil
 2 tbsp salt
1

Wash your rice at least three times, until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and guarantees individual kernels of rice. Place in a lidded pot and add water until there’s one finger knuckle between the rice and the surface of the water. Put the lid on and heat over high until the water boils, then lower the heat as much as possible. Wait 10–15 minutes until checking the rice, and fluff it when it’s done.

Add the seasoning to the fluffed rice, making sure to mix, fold, and fluff till all the rice is a beautiful orange. Check the seasoning and keep warm.
