  1. 1

    Prepare the Water

    In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil over medium-high heat.

    Reduce Heat

    Reduce the heat to low. Cover the saucepan and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

    Add 0.5 tsp of black pepper, adjust seasoning to taste, and serve hot.
