Heat water to boiling

>heat water to boiling

>30 seconds later rice water is foaming and over from underneath the lid

What am I doing wrong?

Not waiting for your element to cool before covering.

just open the lid for a bit and wait for the foam to go back down. might have to do it like 2 or 3 times.

depending on what rice you're cooking, there's more of less of it. personally i've never had that happen with long grain rice. also, the size of the pot you're cooking your rice in might affect that too, obviously. the taller the pot and the less rice you make, the less likely that will happen.

if it does tho, it's not a big deal. never ruined my rice at least.

would moving the pot to another burner with a cold element set to low help?

why does this kid have such a punch-able face?

so would that be

>wait for pot to cool
>cover
>walk away

don't hate on Hipster Toddler now

Shouldn't take long, unless your stove uses ceramic hotplates or something

But if you cover a pot while it's still essentially on maximum heat because it hasn't had a chance to cool down after you moved the dial, of course it'll boil over.

I would push this kid in mud if I saw him at the park.

because you fucked up so badly at life that you're culturally intimidated by a 4 year old dressed the way cool people dressed 7 years ago. you know you shouldn't be, but you are. you try to fight it but it just makes you feel worse. why are you so upset? god dammit it's just a picture of a child dressed up by his parents for some facebook chuckles. it wasn't supposed to turn out like this. you used to tell yourself "this is the year I finally get my shit together" but you've long since given up on that. you consider it a good week if you can just blow off some steam anonymously raving about the cool hipster cucks who blow money on fancy chipotle meals, without getting another sitewide ban

the worst part about it is you know it's all downhill from here. you are just waiting for your parents to die so you can finally have no reason not to commit suicide. your day was going just fine, you were holding it down, and then this kid. this god damm hipster kid with his punchable face brought the facade tumbling down and now you'll stew and stew before rushing off to the gas station to stock up on steel reserve to chill out and watch some Rick & Morty before masturbating yourself to sleep

tomorrow is a new day. maybe tomorrow is the day you start to work on a plan
