Long Grain Rice Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Rinse the Rice

   Start by rinsing the long grain rice under cold water to remove excess starch. This helps to keep the rice from becoming sticky.

2. 2

   Boil the Water

   In a medium-sized pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add salt and optional butter or oil for flavor.

3. 3

   Add the Rice

   Once the water is boiling, add the rinsed rice to the pot. Stir briefly to prevent clumping.

4. 4

   Simmer

   Cover the pot with a lid, reduce the heat to low, and let it simmer for about 18-20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.

5. 5

   Fluff and Serve

   Once cooked, remove the pot from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes. Then, fluff the rice with a fork and serve.
