Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the Rice

    Begin by rinsing the long-grain white rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and prevents the rice from being too sticky.

  2. 2

    Boil Water

    In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the boiling water.

  3. 3

    Add Rice

    Once the water is boiling, add the rinsed rice to the pot. Stir gently to ensure that the rice is evenly distributed.

  4. 4

    Simmer

    Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the rice simmer for about 18-20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed.

  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 and stir in butter or oil before serving.
