Cooking Instructions
- 1
Rinse the Rice
Place the rice in a fine-mesh strainer and rinse under cold running water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and helps to prevent the rice from being gummy.
- 2
Combine Ingredients
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, and salt. Stir to combine.
- 3
Bring to a Boil
Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil.
- 4
Simmer
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.
