Method
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Rinse the Rice
Place the jasmine rice in a fine mesh strainer and rinse under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and helps to keep the rice fluffy.
- 2
Combine Ingredients
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed jasmine rice, water, and salt. Stir gently to combine.
- 3
Bring to Boil
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the saucepan with a tight-fitting lid.
- 4
Simmer
Allow the rice to simmer on low heat for about 15 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender.
- 5
Rest the Rice
Remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes. This helps to steam the rice and makes it fluffier.
- 6
Fluff and Serve
Using a fork, gently fluff the rice to separate the grains. Serve hot as a side dish or as a base for your favorite protein or vegetables.
