Rice - a cooker by all means. But the ancient method.. Wash the rice, swirling with the fingers, repeat 8 times (8 being as suspicious number …) when water runs clear, drain then cover the rice with cold water to the depth of the first joint at the tip of the index finger - finger tip just touching rice. Lid on pot. Bring to boil, switch off, leaving covered. 15-20 minutes later absorption will have done the job. Fluff up with a fork - or chopsticks if you’re minded that way. 🙏

Once again, loved reading, Leah. ‘I’d like to be French for my birthday, perhaps. Or just insouciant. That’s what I’d probably like at 52 - a little more shrug, and a little less neurosis.’

Ha! Reading in the middle of the UK night after waking from an anxious dream, I can see the appeal of that!
