How To Cook White Rice

Cuisine: Chinese
Type: Rice

3 cups 711mlWater

Recipe Instructions

1. Pour the rice into a sieve and rinse it thoroughly under cold running water until the water runs clear. Drain.

2. Add the rice to a saucepan and add the water. (If softer rice is desired, up to an additional 1/2 cup water may be added.) Cook the rice, uncovered, over high heat about 10 minutes, or until "fish eyes" (tiny craters) form over the surface of the rice. Cover closely and cook over very low heat about 20 minutes longer.
