- Rinse the rice before cooking. This will remove the starch and help the rice to cook evenly.
- Use a ratio of 2 cups of water to 1 cup of rice. This will give you fluffy, flavorful rice.
- Bring the water to a boil before adding the rice. This will help to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 18 minutes. Do not peek or stir the rice during this time.
- Once the rice is cooked, remove it from the heat and let it stand for 5 minutes. This will allow the rice to absorb any remaining liquid.
