Steamed Rice Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Rinse the Rice

   Place the long-grain white rice in a fine mesh strainer and rinse under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch to help achieve fluffy rice.

2. 2

   Combine Ingredients

   In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, and salt. Stir gently to mix.

3. 3

   Bring to a Boil

   Cover the saucepan and bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.

4. 4

   Simmer

   Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.

5. 5

   Fluff and Serve

   Remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Then, fluff the rice with a fork before serving.
