Has perfect white rice ever eluded you? After years, I finally cracked the code on absolutely perfect, fluffy, delicious white rice. I have this exact method memorized and I have a feeling you will, too! Get ready for easy, perfect rice…
0 Add the rice to the pot you’re cooking the rice in, then cover the rice with water. Use your hand to swirl around the water and rice. Once the water looks nice and cloudy, use your hand, a spatula, or the lid of the pot to drain off the water. Repeat this step a couple of times, until the water is no longer super cloudy.
1 Once the rice is rinsed and drained, add the cooking water into the pot.
2 This step is optional, but if you wish, add a tablespoon of olive oil (or butter) and/or a ½ teaspoon of salt to the pot.
3 Bring the water and rice to a boil over medium-high heat. Once it’s boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the rice simmer for 15 minutes.
4 Once the 15 minutes is up, remove the pot from the heat, and let the rice sit (covered) for 5 minutes.
5 Use a fork to fluff the rice, then serve and enjoy!
