Cooking Rice With Green Tea / myLot

November 14, 2020 1:32am CST

I found a few articles online about cooking rice using green tea. I don't know whether anyone is familiar with it though. I'm not talking about 'ochazuke', which pour green tea over the cooked rice but use the green tea to cook rice instead of plain water. As we know, green tea has plenty of health benefits. Also, it's being promoted as a drink to help us lose weight. I must admit, this is more interesting than the rest of the benefit

I don't drink green tea. I've tried but the taste it's not to my liking. But if I can use it like this, maybe it can help me drink green tea. Anyone ever heard of this method? Anyone ever try it?

This is the first time I heard of this. I might not try this as I do not really like green tea as well. Update us how will it go

I think so too. The articles say the rice will have a bit bitter taste of the green tea. I need to try first to see how it goes.

@prinzcy I think it can detoxify our bodies when having green tea.

Never heard this methode before. I like green tea but with honey and lemon. But if add the water to rice... i dont think that i would ever try this. I am afraid it would be a waste of rice. The rice will be bitter
