Cooking Instructions
- 1
Rinse the Rice
Place the white rice in a fine mesh strainer and rinse it under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and helps prevent the rice from becoming gummy.
- 2
Boil the Water
In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil over high heat. Add the salt to the boiling water.

Add the Rice
Once the water is boiling, add the rinsed white rice to the saucepan. Stir briefly to prevent the rice from sticking.
- 4
Cover and Simmer
Reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, and let the rice simmer for about 18 minutes. Do not lift the lid during this time.
