Detailed explanation-1: -The ratio of uncooked to cooked rice is 1:3. So whatever amount you have of uncooked rice, you simply multiply it by 3, and you have the amount of cooked rice.
Detailed explanation-2: -The type of rice you’re cooking and how much cooked rice you need will determine how much uncooked rice and water to use. Long-grain white rice generally requires a 1:2 ratio of water to uncooked rice, while brown rice typically needs a 1:3 ratio.
Detailed explanation-3: -Measure a quarter cup of uncooked rice per person, or a half cup per person for more generous servings. One cup of uncooked rice will yield approximately three cups cooked.
Detailed explanation-4: -Larger serving of rice To end up with a single serving of 150 g (1 cup / 4 oz in weight) of cooked white long-grain rice: start with 50 g (⅓ cup / 2 oz ) of uncooked white long-grain rice. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans (2015 – 2020 edition, Appendix 3) suggests the first, smaller amount.
