Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the rice

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

  2. 2

    Combine ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Bring to a boil

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

  4. 4

    Reduce heat and simmer

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and let it simmer for 18-20 minutes.

  5. 5

    Fluff and serve

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