Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the Rice

    Place the long-grain white rice in a fine-mesh sieve and rinse it under cold running water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch.

  2. 2

    Boil Water

    In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.

  3. 3

    Simmer

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

  4. 4

    Fluff and Serve

    Remove the saucepan from heat. Add butter or olive oil, fluff the rice with a fork, and let it sit for 5 minutes before serving.
