Re: best way to cook basmati rice?

It's the best type of rice for some uses, yes. It's a poor choice to pair with Chinese food, where the best choice is jasmine rice, or for making sushi where you'd need a short grain rice specifically meant for sushi, for example.

Basmati rice has a slightly drier texture than say, jasmine rice or short grain rice. It goes best with dishes that have a lot of sauce to soak up, like curry.

It's been my favorite as a side dish. ) I'd use a different kind for, say, risotto. Can't say it's dry... Maybe because I use a lot of water.

Hm-mm, did you use the recipe in the article? I like pressure cooked rice because it's fast. The downside is washing the lid separately from other dishes however it's still faster than simply boiling it.
