Ingredients for Steamed Rice
Method
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Rinse the Rice
Place the white rice in a fine mesh strainer and rinse under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming gummy.

Boil Water
In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil over high heat. Add the salt to the boiling water.
- 3
Add Rice
Once the water is boiling, add the rinsed rice to the pot. Stir it once to ensure even distribution.
- 4
Simmer
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a lid, and let it simmer for 18-20 minutes. Avoid lifting the lid during this time.
