Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the Rice

    Place the jasmine rice in a fine mesh strainer and rinse it under cold running water for about 2-3 minutes until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch and prevents the rice from being too sticky.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium-sized pot, combine the rinsed jasmine rice, water, and salt.

  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 pot with a lid, and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.

  5. 5

    Fluff and Serve

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