Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the Rice

    In a fine mesh strainer, rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and helps prevent the rice from becoming sticky.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, salt, and butter or oil.

  3. 3

    Bring to a Boil

    Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Simmer

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and let it simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.

  5. 5

    Fluff the Rice

    Remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes. Then, use a fork to fluff the rice gently before serving.
