I am a white guy, been doing this for 20 years. Its not just that it makes it fluffy it makes it so it doesn't bond like a brick and overheat the edges also making hard parts of rice. Once the rice is done some times the main dish isn't ready yet so you got to turn off the warmer/keep warm fuction, then toss the rice around to seperate it so once the main dish IS done your rice isn't like paste in areas or dry. It also makes it easier for everyone else to spoon it up.
In our asian household, you leave the rice as perfectly as possible…the only time you turn the rice over like that is when you'll make fried rice or feed your pets🙃… leave it be or the next person will think you had an unfinished rice & you returned it back😅

Cool, so I must be Japanese because I have been doing that all my life.
Waiting for a video of you serving your wife compacted rice 😂 🪦
japanese just hate… …but hide it behind a veneer of extreme politeness. this was only after they were nuked.
Indonesian here. My mom always tell me to do this
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
don't need to be Japanese to know to fluff the rice its fucking common sense to anyone with a brain.
My dad literally told me to not touch the rice after it cooked and I was like, "the Japanese do. 💀" He never mentioned the rice again.
Lol I’m Chinese I have never fluff rice in my 21 years on this earth
I just fluff rice out of habit, didn't know it was a thing for Japanese people.
I'm Malaysian and my grandma taught me to fluff my rice since i learned how to cook. Not fluffing is just not acceptable 😂
Dude, can you make a better title? This is so cringy “hate their foreign husbands” cmon man
tbh it’s applied to not just Japan but other countries with rice
i started fluffing my rice when i noticed moisture gets trapped inside the rice causing it to spoil faster.
My mom says to do this too and we’re Chinese

If you dont do that you might overcook your rice and make it too dry
Pretty sure all Asians learn this 😅
I do i do.
I take my chopsticks and rotate them around like one of those fancy cuisenart mixers. Makes the FLUFFIEST RICE EVER
I like gummy rice!!!
We also fluff our rice before eating and have a long stick made out of bamboo to fluff rice 😂 Btw I'm 🇮🇳😊
I've never learned to fluff rice while serving, but I did learn to fluff it as the final cooking step.
😂😂😂😂
I did not know that…ok! Imma gonna try fluffy the rice
While in philippine
Hawaiian here, just eat…no body judge you
It still surprises me how weird that culture is……..they're good at making cars though, but that's where the normal ends.
don't just pack the cooked rice, pound it to a point it nearly turn into mochi then give to a Jap for breakfast
I'm Australian and it's a pet hate of mine when rice isn't fluffed

I thought everyone fluff rice… Yes, I'm Asian
Basmati rice is fluffy and airy
Japanese wife in italy….many mistakes when eats italian food 🤣🤣🤣
I married 2 Japanese women so i need to be careful for it because i grow up with them since we child so i knew what they personality like
All asians fluff up their rice. Only the uncivilised don’t
Who the hell doesn’t fluff their rice???
Chinese too, we do this before we take the rice
It's not in Japan only, it everywhere.
Any one brought up with rice as staple food know this rule. Or you will risk your rice to be cooked unevenly and spoiled fast
Not only Japanese, me as Chinese also have the same custom of fluff as soon as the rice cooked!
Duh
Basically all asians or anyone who have rice as their staple food fluff their rice
Never imagined that a goat would know how to speak and wear clothes 😂
