Elmo: Yummy! Thank you, Alan!
Alan: Of course. Elmo: Ha ha ha! Oh!
Oh! Hi. Welcome to Sesame Street.
Abby: Yeah. You're just in time for lunch.
Elmo: Yeah! We're having chicken and rice soup.
It's one of Elmo's favorites!
Alan: Oh. Well, it's a lot of people's favorite,
so it's a good thing I asked Grover
to cook up some more rice.
Grover: Did someone say, "More rice"?
Alan: What?! Abby: Wow!
That is a mountain of rice! Grover: Hmm.
Mia: Whoa!
Alan: Grover, how much rice did you make?!
Grover: 3 cups just like you said.
[Humming]
Alan: Yeah. Those aren't cups. Those are pitchers.
Elmo: Ha ha ha! Abby: Ha ha ha!
Alan: Oh, hi, Mia.
What am I gonna do with all this rice?
No one's gonna want that much soup!
Abby: Well, maybe there's other foods
you can make with rice besides soup.
Mia: One of my dads is Cuban-American,
and we use rice to make all kinds of things.
Ji-Young: Yeah. I'm Korean-American.
My family makes all kinds of recipes with rice, too.
Elmo: Is Abby thinking what Elmo's thinking?
Abby and Elmo: Sesame Street cookoff!
Abby: Yes! Elmo: Yay!
Abby: OK. All right. Let's do this, Wanda.
Hmm. Ohh!

Let's hear it for Frank and Dave!
Give it up. Whoo-hoo!
[Cheering and applause]
♪
Tell us how are you going to use that rice?
[Cheering and applause]
Frank: Uh...
Mia: We can make arroz imperial!
It's one of my favorite Cuban rice recipes
that we make together.
Elmo: Ooh! Arroz imperial. Tell us more about it.
Frank: Yeah...
[Laughter]
Mia: Arroz means rice in Spanish.
There are so many special ways to make rice,
and our family makes it in our own special way.
Abby: Ooh! Arroz imperial!
Ohh! That's gonna be hard to beat.
Our other chef is Ji-Young!
Ji-Young: Oh! Oh, hi.
Abby: Ji-Young, who are you gonna choose
to help you today?
Ji-Young: Oh, Mr. Alan. Alan: Oh, what, what? Me?
Ji-Young: Yeah. We can make kimbap.
It's one of my favorite things to make with rice.
Alan: OK. You know, I love kimbap,
but I have never made it before.
Abby: Can you tell our viewers what kimbap is?
Ji-Young: Uh, yes. It is a Korean dish
with rice, sliced vegetables, egg, meat, or fish
rolled in seaweed.
The word "kim" means seaweed,
and "bap" means rice in Korean.
[Applause]
Abby: Ahh. Ji-Young: It's one
of my favorite recipes to make with my halmoni.
Abby: Aww. Halmoni is grandmother in Korean.
Ji-Young: That's right! We make kimbap together,
and then I bring it for my school lunch.
Abby: Ahh. Heh! School lunch is lunch
that we eat at school.
Ji-Young: Yeah.
Elmo: Now that we know what everyone is making,
it's time to use that rice!
The clock is ticking.
[Trumpet blares]
Clock?

Clock: Tick, tick, tick...
[Indistinct chatter]
Alan: OK. Oh! Sorry. Dave: Sorry.
All right.
[Both panting]
Alan: Aah!
Elmo: Looks like our contestants
are off and running.
Let's check in with Abby to find out a little bit more
about arroz imperial.
Abby: So, Dave, arroz imperial.
Tell us all about it!
Dave: Well, it's a recipe from Cuba
that my family makes that uses cheese,
chicken, veggies, and a lot of rice.
Abby: Ooh! That is so special.
Uh, now, Mia, tell us what you are doing
with the rice.
Mia: So I'm adding in tomato sauce and spices
like cumin, garlic powder, bay leaf, and annatto
to make yellow rice.
Frank, crying: The onions and the bell peppers
will go in the rice, too.
Abby: Oh. You're--you're so passionate about cooking.
Frank: Oh. The onions make my eyes water.
Yeah. I'm having a good time.
[Laughter]
Mia: That gives it so much flavor.
Our family loves yellow rice, right?
Dave: Right, Mia,
and then once the rice is done,
we'll coat the pan with mayonnaise
and then layer our rice with chicken and cheese.
Abby: Mmm, mmm, mmm!
I can't wait to taste it!
Uh, back to you, Elmo.
Elmo: Thank you, Abby!
Elmo's here with Ji-Young to find out
what goes into kimbap.
Ji-Young: Uh, well, Elmo, you can put all kinds
of things into kimbap.
The way my family makes it,
sesame oil and salt are mixed into the rice first.
Elmo: Oh. Ji-Young: Mm-hmm,
and then we put carrots, spinach, cucumber,
and pickled radish.
Oh, and egg!
So next, Alan will slice up the egg
just like the vegetables.
Elmo: Oh, ho ho! That sounds exciting!
Thank you, Ji-Young. Ji-Young: Yeah!
Elmo: But will they finish before the clock runs out?
Audience: Ooh!
Clock: Tick, tick, tick.
Elmo: Looks like Ji-Young has some kind of a--
well, what is it you have there, Ji-Young?
Ji-Young: Oh. Oh, yes, Elmo.
This is a bamboo mat.
We put a sheet of dried seaweed on top of it like this.
Alan: OK. Seaweed, and do you want me to add the rice?
Ji-Young: Oh, yeah. Sure! Alan: Great!
♪
Ji-Young: Smooth it out. Alan: Smooth it out.
How's that look?
Ji-Young: Beautiful! Alan: OK.
Ji-Young: And then we add the veggies.
Alan: Add the veggies. OK.
♪
Ji-Young: And now the egg,
and then we roll it.
Alan: You want me to roll it?
Ji-Young: Yeah, sure. Alan: All right!
Here we go.
Abby: While Alan rolls the seaweed,
let's see how Mia's doing.
Elmo: Look. The rice for the arroz imperial
has changed color.
Abby: Looks like Mia's daddy Frank
is spreading something in the pan.
Hmm. Could that be the mayonnaise?
Frank: That's right.
Elmo: Oh! Look at Mr. Dave go. Ho ho!
Oh, and here comes the shredded chicken.
Abby: Notice how Frank uses tongs to spread it evenly.
Fascinating!
Elmo: And look! It's Elmo's favorite...
Elmo and Abby: Shredded cheese!
Abby: Ooh! Now Mia's adding
the slices of bell peppers on top.
Oh! I'm getting so hungry.
Elmo: Ooh! It looks like a flower!
Abby: Ooh! It does!
And into the oven it goes!
Ooh, ooh!
Elmo: Oh, Elmo's seeing some high-fives out there.
They're looking pretty confident.
Now that's what Elmo calls teamwork, Abby.
Abby: Oh, it sure is, Elmo.
Say, let's check back in on Ji-Young and Alan
and see how it's going.
Ji-Young!
Ji-Young: Oh, great!
Alan just added sesame oil to the outside of the kimbap,
and now he's ready to do the slicing.
Alan: Slicing. OK.
Abby: Oh! Look at that.
[Cheering and applause]
It is so magical.
Ji-Young: OK. After you're done with this one,
let's make another!
Alan: All right. I'm ready.
Elmo: All right. They're going for another.
Alan: I got it. Ji-Young: Yeah.
Alan: All right. Clock: Tick, tick.
Elmo, my ticker's tired.
I got to stop.
[Alarm ringing]
Elmo: Well, you heard it.
Looks like we're out of time.
Audience: Aww. Abby: Oh!
Mia: The arroz imperial is done!
[Cheering and applause]
Alan: Finished! Ji-Young: And so is the kimbap!
Elmo: Yes, but did our teams
use that rice?
Abby: Ohh!
Yes, they did!
[Cheering and applause]
And now for my favorite part of the show.
Abby and Elmo: Let's eat!
Frank: Ha ha ha!
Elmo: Mmm. Elmo loves how tasty and colorful
the kimbap is!
Abby: Yes, and the arroz imperial
looks cheestastic! Elmo: Yeah.
Frank: I love your family's special rice recipe, Ji-Young.

We should have a rice day celebrating rice
from everybody's family and from all around the world.
Grover: Ooh! That sounds exciting!
Should I make some more rice?
Others: No!
Alan: Grover!
Grover: Ho ho ho! You kidders, you.

Cookie Monster: Hello, Mr. Rice Farmer.
We need rice to make veggie fried rice.
Uh, can you help us, please?
Farmer: Hello, Cookie Monster and Gonger.
Welcome to the rice farm!
Sure I can help you.
Rice is a grain. It starts out as seeds
that get planted in a nursery field
called a rice paddy.
To plant the seeds, the farmer uses a machine
called a rice planter.
It spreads the dirt, drops the seeds,
and then covers them back up with dirt.
Seeds become seedlings within a week.
Then 21 days later, the field is covered in water.
Then the water is drained so the rice can be harvested.
A machine called a harvester cuts the rice stalks.
Then trucks take the rice to a silo,
where the rice is dried out using fans.
After the rice stalks are dried,
it is taken to a mill.
There, a machine called a thresher
separates the rice from the stalks.
Finally, a machine called a husker removes the husks,
and now you have healthy brown rice.
Here's some rice to make fried rice,
Cookie Monster and Gonger.
Cookie Monster: Oh. Thank you, Mr. Rice Farmer.
Cookie Monster and Gonger: ♪ We got rice, we got rice ♪
