1 Scoop White Rice Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Rinse the Rice

   In a fine-mesh strainer, rinse the 1 cup of white rice under cold running water for about 1-2 minutes. This step helps to remove excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming gummy.

2. 2

   Boil Water

   In a medium-sized saucepan, add 2 cups of water and 0.5 tsp of salt. Bring the water to a boil over high heat.

3. 3

   Cook the Rice

   Once the water is boiling, add the rinsed rice to the saucepan. Stir once to ensure that all the rice is submerged in water. Cover the saucepan with a lid and reduce the heat to low.

4. 4

   Simmer

   Let the rice simmer on low heat for about 18-20 minutes. Avoid lifting the lid during this time to ensure proper steam cooking.

5. 5

   Fluff and Serve

   After 20 minutes, remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes. Then, use a fork to fluff the rice gently before serving.
