The Best Way to cook rice

Cooking rice may seem like a simple task, but getting it just right can be tricky. Follow these easy steps to make perfect rice every time!

  1. Rinse your rice in a fine mesh strainer until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and helps prevent sticky rice[1].
  2. Use a ratio of 1 cup of rice to 1 1/2 cups of water for most types of rice[2].
  3. Bring the water to a boil in a pot with a tight-fitting lid. Add the rice, stir once, and cover with the lid[3].
  4. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 18 minutes without opening the lid[3].
  5. After 18 minutes, remove the pot from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5-10 minutes to steam[3].
  6. Fluff the rice with a fork and serve hot!

With these simple steps, you'll have perfectly cooked rice to enjoy with your favorite dishes.
