Cooking rice

Measure the desired amount of rice

Rinse the rice in a fine-mesh strainer under cold water until the water runs clear

Soak the rice in water for 30 minutes (optional)

Measure the appropriate amount of water or broth (generally 1:2 ratio of rice to liquid)

Place the rinsed rice and liquid in a medium-sized saucepan

Add a pinch of salt (optional)

Bring the liquid to a boil over medium-high heat

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the saucepan with a tight-fitting lid

Allow the rice to simmer undisturbed for 15-20 minutes (check package instructions for specific cooking time)

After the recommended cooking time, remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5-10 minutes to allow the rice to steam

Remove the lid and use a fork to fluff the rice gently

Taste and adjust seasoning if desired (add salt, pepper, herbs, or spices)

Serve the cooked rice hot as a side dish or as a base for other recipes

Empty any remaining water from the saucepan and rinse it thoroughly

Clean the strainer used for rinsing the rice

Wash any utensils or tools used during the process

Wipe down the kitchen counter and stove if needed
