Rice & Grains
Breakfast staple; rehydrates in seconds.
What to know
Rinse briefly in a colander and drain — never soak. Poha left sitting in water turns to porridge.
- Storing it
- Airtight; goes stale faster than whole grains.
Measures
- 1 cup ≈ 46 g
Cups here are the Indian 200 ml cup, not the 240 ml US cup — a common reason a recipe does not work. Weigh where you can; the grams are the figure we cook to.
