Rice Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Rinse the Rice

   In a fine mesh strainer, rinse the rice under cold running water until the water runs clear, about 2-3 minutes. This removes excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming gummy.

2. 2

   Boil Water

   In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil over high heat. Add the salt and butter or oil to the boiling water.

3. 3

   Add Rice

   Once the water is boiling, add the rinsed rice to the saucepan. Stir briefly to prevent sticking.

4. 4

   Simmer

   Reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let the rice simmer for about 18-20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed.

5. 5

   Fluff and Serve

   Once cooked, remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork before serving.
