Sir, your content is excellent. I always enjoy the way you explain food. You explain a lot of information about history, science, myths, and health. One location for all food content. Please continue to post such videos as they will benefit all generations.
My grandparents ate only rice with a lot of vegetables as a tamil bramin but were never overweight and remained mostly healthy. Actually my grandmother passed away at 92 with no B P or diabetes but due to age . Chappati was made only when we visited them that too maybe once a week . 😅
Overall meal matters more than the rice. As you said, a lot of vegetables really help! But beyond all of that, genetics and lifestyle also plays a huge role.
Also Lalita has survival bias in her argument. In our grandparents generation each family used to have upto 10-12 kids out of which only 5-6 survived till adulthood so obviously the survived people without medical interventions are healthiest of the lot n are expected to survive till near 100yrs
i think u r gradmother used to do all means all cooking by herself i think including with out mixer, washing matchine, maid, gas, vacume cleaners but now a days we r eating the same like gps but chores?

Incredible Video with Stunning Graphics! I wanted to express my gratitude for your amazing videos. I'm genuinely thrilled that I stumbled upon your channel! Without fail, I find myself bringing up your channel at family and friend gatherings whenever someone starts spreading false information about food. Thank you
Namaskaram, starting from Aliens and finishing to Tamil proverb about Rice is interesting. The way u tell about everything in micro is knowledgble. Seen only 2 to 3 videos of urs and became a fan. May Perumal bless u with more Knowledge and continue to educate us more and more. 🙏
Debunked so many myths, especially about eating refrigerated rice. Thank you so much. Curd-rice after every meal is religion for most South Indians like me.
I’ve only recently seen your videos popping up for me. I’m very much enjoying them! So I’ve subscribed. Science and cooking go so excellently together! I think you provide a nice balance of material for people of all levels of knowledge. I think you may have even outshined my old favourite Alton Brown :)
My grandmother from Jaffna, drained the rice and used the rice kanji as hair conditioner or threw it out. She also made many side dishes to go with the rice. I am looking back at Traditions for health.
I love parboiled rice and I find it very versatile. One can use it effectively for daal chawal, biryani or risotto. I like rice soft (not al dente) so here is a little trick I have learnt. I roast the rice with a tablespoon of ghee in the cooker, till it gives its nutty fragrance and slightly brown color. I then add water and a pinch of salt, and let it cook on low-medium flame for 3-5 whistles. This recipe is very forgiving if one adds a little extra water too. Rice always comes out soft and fluffy, with each grain separated.
Another trick - if you don't have time.. or don't want to roast. Just add a teaspoon of coconut oil/ any oil and salt. Close the lid and let it cook. The lipids do the Job..! *Option 2 :- Just squeeze half a lemon into it and let it cook.
Krish (Should I refer to you as Krish or Ashok?) I think rice is only the 3rd most produced food due to a technicality. We measure food production differently for different commodities. Sugarcane is harvested and measured whole but most of it is just cellulose to be thrown away or turned into paper/cardboard. Sugarcane yields only about 7-10% sugar. Maize is also harvested and measured with the cob, most of which is thrown away. Maize grains make up minority of the weight. Whereas rice/paddy yeild is measured with the husked grain. After milling it still retains majority of the weight, which is almost all starch.
@@krishashok I am not a professional TH-camr, but I started some conversations recently - too very impressed with your presentation style - and exceptional content. Kudos sir.
The number of food related metaphors in Tamil is quite staggering. Made more fascinating by the fact that the written/formal language has remain unchanged for the most part of the last 3000 years!
We still cook paraboiled rice in a pot of water and then drain out the water once cooked. This makes good fluffy rice. The water drained out is used as drinking water or used next day as hair wash :)
In Odisha we consume Usuna rice(parboiled rice) daily using the draining method of cooking. Sitabhog and arua(polished rice) is consumed during festive occasions.
Yes true ; Odisha rice preparations with spices are good ( jeera rice for eg ) , Dhall alongwith Bindi fry is terrible ; I lived next to Odisha family ; Very healthy also ; I never hesitate to go whenever they invite me ;
Excellent research!! I became a big fan of your videos.. I checked for your book at the Bangalore airport bookstore before boarding..but they didn’t have it. Please sell there too..
Just been published, so it will take some time to get to all bookstores! You can get it on amazon right away - www.amazon.in/Masala-Lab-Illustrated-Beautiful-Bestselling/dp/0670098566/
My grandma used to have different rice to water ratio based on the age of the rice. If it was harvested recently, it’d be more sticky. Old rice needed more water.
Very happy to see videos from you which gives very scientific view on food that we eat. We require more people like you in India where myths are more prevalent.
Wanted to add how korean rice cookers help in removing a lot of the guess work due to the incredible tech that's packed in. They even have a small container in the back to help collect any amount of excess water.
@@krishashok Thanks yet again for this extremely informative video! And the ending with Thiruppavai made it even better! 😊 It made me feel happy as recently, I chose to give away rice packs as return gift for my wedding! :)
Brilliant content! Thank you for being so thorough! One quick question (probably a silly one) - so should one re heat the refrigerated rice or not? Will it bring back the starch to normal or it won't matter?
Small suggestion to your video editor (or you if you do it yourself) it a best to avoid using these random clips in the middle that are used to emphasise key words or some phrases. They look out of context from the central theme and are distracting. Other than that the video is (as always) very well researched and informative. Thank you for making this.
Cooked rice kept in fridge turns into” resistant starch” which delays absorption and prevents glucose spikes. One can heat the rice ( less than 30 seconds)after taking it out of fridge. One can keep the rice in fridge up to 3 days and it becomes more resistant!
Very informative. Thanks for your videos. There is a practice in some households to cook rice in an open vessel with more water and then drain that starchy water midway during cooking, then add more water and cook. This removal of starchy water during cooking happens sometimes more than once. What's the impact of such a practice on calories, starch and nutrients pls?
Soak brown rice overnight, cook usually in at least three x water, or 5 x if you want to slow cook in pressure cooker. Once it comes to three whistles, simmer for another 10 min. let the pressure come down naturally. filter out excess water(starch) before forking the rice.
Annam parabhrahma swaroopam. Elders said this how important it is ! And also precious. Even in Hindu rituals rice is the one given to ancestors, death anniversaries, yagnam etc
In general, origin of foods is very hard to establish. THe current academic consensus is that it likely arrived from China around the time you mention. At the same time, it's impossible to rule out that it was indepdendently domesticated in the subcontinent as well. Aside, the concept of India or China is a modern day one. 9000 years ago, these political entities did not exist.
That's why in South India in every religious occasion priests sprinkle rice grains on the heads blessings to live long. Actually those are called "akshath" meaning there is no end or un destructive.
Dishes very similar to biriyani have been mentioned in Deccan South Indian ancient books like King Nalas Paaka Darpana and Manasollasa of Chalukyan era Biryani is a South Indian item
A correction, rice doesnt absorb water 1:1. It varies based on variety as well as personal preference of mushiness. Actual absorbtion tends to be between 1:1 to 1:2. Hiw do i know? Because i have done experiment using weighing scales to weigh Uncooked rice, water absorbed, water evaporated, water discarded, final cooked rice Also whether you cook 100 g rice or 10 kg rice, the water requirement scales up proportionally - i dont know why you believe that proportions will not scale up with quantity.
Now since you mentioned millets, plz do a separate video for millets boom we are seeing now in Andhra and Karnataka....pros and cons and compare with rice...
Thanks Krish. Do you have anything to say on nonstick cooking surfaces (skillets/pans etc.) and aluminum cookware? Which is the safest cooking surface?
How potato and all 4 other are related... Potato is a modified root/tuber ..of a plant that is dicotyledon in nature. The rest four are monocotyledon plants.
What about matta rice, is not the cooking process longer, amount of water needed also more ? The age old method is keep boiling the rice in lots of water till the rice is cooked, then drain the excess water. Almost a 2 - 3 hour process.
We used to eat only govindo bhog rice since childhood. I didn't know any other type of rice really. Till my teenage, I had only eaten this variety of rice. When I went to college hostel, I was disgusted by the rice served there. Though it was still a good variety of rice, it was not fragrant like Govindo bhog. Now I am grown up and the whiff of govind bhog is sufficient to make me salivate. It is the yummiest rice, even better than long grain basmati.
I m in my 40s. I ate rice all my chilfhood, i used to hate chapaties, i still do. I never ever cross 50 kg except in my pregnancies. Main thing is i reside in coastal area of MH. All ppl in our region do the same. If it bhakri, it is also of rice. Nobody put weight or get diabetics. When i see panic in ppl when it comes to rice, i feel surprised. But may b location of ppl matter
The note that you read from an ancient Tamil poet, do you think there is a nutritional value in adding ghee to rice? May be some scientific reason that it reduces starch or uplift nutritional value of rice?
Fat + carbs reduces glycemic load of carbs. This is why eating a croissant (wheat layered with butter) is better for diabetics than eating regular bread. Of course, always pay attention to overall consumption of fat
While we might have bever eaten brown rice, historically we might have never eaten fully polished rice. Husk was removed by hand pounding (/ kai kuthal/ dampudu) raw paddy or para boiled paddy. Hand pounding raw paddy will result in rupturing of bran and we might have ended up with rice with some bran in it. Paraboiled rice will have little bran in it but lot of nutrients supposedly get in to the kernel from bran during soaking and boiling.
Sir, thanks for this wonderful value add.. Is potato really a grass ie a member of poaceae family? Google says that potato belongs to Solanaceae family.

It will reduce calories, but you will also lose some micronutrients.
So even that strained water which will be a bit thicker,, can be consumed adding some curds and salt onion and coriander.
