Rice Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Rinse the Rice

   Place the long-grain white rice in a fine mesh strainer and rinse under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch.

2. 2

   Boil the Water

   In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the salt to the water once it starts boiling.

3. 3

   Cook the Rice

   Add the rinsed rice to the boiling water. Stir once to separate any clumps, then reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and simmer for 18-20 minutes until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.

4. 4

   Fluff and Serve

   Remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes. Then, fluff the rice with a fork and serve as a side dish.
