Cooking Instructions
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 helps prevent the rice from becoming gummy.
Combine Rice and Water
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and water. You can add a pinch of salt for flavor if desired.
Bring to a Boil
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
Simmer and Cover
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, and let it simmer for about 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.
