Pilaf with raisins - tips and tricks
• Even sweet pilaf requires salt. It gives rice taste, makes the dish rich. If you do not add salt, it may seem “empty.”
• Repeated washing of rice is the norm for pilaf. But the sweet dish is often cooked and viscous. And sometimes they use round rice to make pilaf more like porridge.
• Raisins can be different. And not only in appearance, but also to taste. If the berries are sour, then add some sugar to the pilaf. If on the contrary, they are very cloying, then you can reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe.
• Both sweet and regular pilaf require time for full disclosure of taste. Therefore, do not rush him to lay out the plates and let it brew under a lid. It will become much more delicious.
• Delicious pilaf is obtained only in dishes with thick walls. Basically for cooking use cauldron. But, if it is not there, then you can use a cast-iron pan or a saucepan. But in a Teflon skillet, the pilaf is not what it should be.
• Sugar increases the stickiness of rice. Therefore, it is better to add it already in the finished dish, unless of course according to the recipe it is not intended to cook porridge.
