Preparation
Step 1
No rinsing (my everyday method):
Step 2
Place rice and water in a medium saucepan (one with a tight fitting lid). Bring to rapid simmer with NO LID on medium high.
Step 3
Turn down to low or medium low so it's simmering gently, then place lid on. Do not lift lid during cook.
Step 4
Cook 12 minutes or until water is absorbed by rice - tilt pot to check (if lid not glass, then QUICKLY lift lid to check).
Step 5
Keep the lid on then remove from heat. Stand 10 minutes, fluff with rubber spatula or rice paddle, then serve.
Step 6
RINSED RICE (Note 3):
Step 7
Place rice in a bowl, fill with water and swish. Once cloudy, drain. Repeat 2 - 3 more times until water is pretty clear - it will never be completely clear.
Step 8
Drain rice in a colander, transfer to saucepan.
Step 9
Add water - 1 1/4 cups of water MINUS 2 tablespoons per 1 cup of rice. Follow cook steps above in No Rinsing.
