Arroz Blanco Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Rinse the Rice

   In a fine-mesh sieve, rinse the white rice under cold running water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.

2. 2

   Combine Ingredients

   In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, salt, and butter or oil.

3. 3

   Bring to a Boil

   Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.

4. 4

   Simmer

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

5. 5

   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.
