Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the Rice

    In a fine-mesh strainer, rinse 1 cup of white rice under cold running water. This step helps to remove excess starch and prevents the rice from being too sticky.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, 2 cups of water, and 0.5 tsp of salt. If using, add 1 tablespoon of butter or olive oil for added flavor.

  3. 3

    Bring to a Boil

    Place the saucepan on the stove over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil, uncovered.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Rice

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

  5. 5

    Fluff and Serve

    After cooking, remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes. Then, use a fork to fluff the rice. If desired, sprinkle with fresh herbs before serving.
