What changes the calories
- Cooked rice weighs much more than dry rice because it absorbs water, so calories per gram are far higher for uncooked grains than for cooked ones.
- Sticky rice dishes often include coconut milk, sugar or oil, such as mango sticky rice or fried sticky rice, which add their own calories on top of the plain rice.
- Because sticky rice packs densely, a cup pressed firmly into a bowl or mold can hold more rice than a loosely filled cup.
- Rice that sits and dries out loses water weight, so the same amount of rice weighs less and has more calories per gram.
Tips for logging it accurately
- Weigh cooked sticky rice on a kitchen scale rather than using cups, since its stickiness makes volume measurements unreliable.
- Log it as cooked glutinous rice if you weigh it after cooking, and use an uncooked rice entry if you weigh the grains dry.
- Log sweet or savory additions like coconut milk, sugar, sauces or fillings separately, or snap a photo of the plate in BerryFit to capture the whole dish.
