Rice Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Rinse the Rice

   Start by rinsing the long-grain white rice under cold running water in a fine-mesh strainer until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming sticky.

2. 2

   Boil Water

   In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups of water, 0.5 tsp of salt, and 1 tbsp of butter or oil. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.

3. 3

   Add Rice

   Once the water is boiling, add the rinsed rice to the pot. Stir briefly to separate the grains.

4. 4

   Simmer

   Reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and let it simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.

5. 5

   Fluff and Serve

   After cooking, remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 5 minutes. Then, fluff the rice with a fork and serve warm.
