White Rice Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Rinse the Rice

   Start by rinsing the white rice under cold running water in a fine mesh strainer. This helps to remove excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming too sticky.

2. 2

   Combine Ingredients

   In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, 1.5 cups of water, and 0.5 tsp of salt. Stir gently to distribute the salt.

3. 3

   Bring to a Boil

   Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil. Once it reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low.

4. 4

   Simmer the Rice

   Cover the saucepan with a tight-fitting lid and let the rice simmer on low heat for about 18-20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed.

5. 5

   Fluff the Rice

   After the cooking time is up, remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes. Then, use a fork to fluff the rice gently.

6. 6

   Add Furikake

   Transfer the fluffed rice to a serving bowl and sprinkle 2 tablespoons of furikake over the top. Gently toss to combine or serve it as is.
