Chef's Day Off

Everything You Need To Know About Rice. Does the "TikTok Method" Actually WORK?

Episode 1 – Rice: How to Cook It, Hack It, and Make It Taste Like a Chef Made It.

In the very first episode of Chef’s Day Off, hosts Marcus D. and Chef Matthew Dolan (of San Francisco’s 25 Lusk) break down one of the most misunderstood ingredients in your kitchen: rice.

We’re talking how to cook the perfect pot of rice, why that viral TikTok rice method actually works, and what to do with leftover rice that’s better than tossing it in the trash. Chef Dolan explains the science of rice cooking — including why rinsing matters, how salt behaves with moisture, and how to master rice with or without a rice cooker.

If you’ve ever struggled with mushy rice, burnt bottoms, or flavorless fluff, this episode is your shortcut to chef-approved results at home. New episodes drop every Friday.
