" Hi! I'm Louis Ortiz on behalf of Expert Village and where finishing up our rice pilaf that we continued or started actually in a earlier video and we got in on the stove top here. I cut the flame off so what we are after now we are at the point of doneness I will pull this lid off and show you there is a whole nice head of steam coming off. And what you are looking for are these little holes inside the rice there that go all the way to the base of the pan and that is a good sign that is actually what we wanted. So we are going to leave this on the heat just a tinny bit on a low flame and I got just a tinny bit or residual liquid in there but I wanted to show you guys exactly what this need to look like right before it was finish. So where going to go ahead and just put a low flame on it again and I will come right back and show you the finish product and we would actually pour it out to a bowl so you could see how nice and fluffy this comes out and how it needs to separate in such so we would know that we have not over done it.
