Foolproof Stovetop Rice
You don't need a rice cooker to cook perfect rice each time--here's how to do it.
Prep Time 3 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Servings 4
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups uncooked white rice (See Note)
- water
Instructions
-
Put the uncooked rice in a saucepan, rinse twice and drain. Level the rice with your fingers, rest the tip of your finger on top of the rice and add water up to the first crease (or knuckle). Cover with a lid, bring to a boil then reduce heat to simmer. Check for doneness in 8 to 10 minutes after reducing heat to simmer. Fluff with a fork and serve.
Recipe Notes
Rice: You don't have to measure the rice for this method but until you get the hang of it, I'm recommending 1 1/2 cups to start.
