Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the Rice

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

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, and salt. Stir gently to combine.

  3. 3

    Bring to a Boil

    Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil.

  4. 4

    Simmer

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, and let it simmer for about 18-20 minutes or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.

  5. 5

    Fluff the Rice

    Remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes. Then, fluff the rice gently with a fork before serving.
