Directions
- 1
Prepare the Rice
Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and helps achieve a fluffy texture.

Cook the Rice
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is tender and all the water is absorbed.

Mix in Umeshu
Once the rice is cooked, remove it from the heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes. Then, gently fluff the rice with a fork and mix in the umeshu until evenly distributed.
