Culinary School White Rice
Culinary School White Rice
Ingredients
- 1 cup white rice
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- 1
Measure 1 cup of white rice.
⏱️ 1 min
- 2
Rinse the rice thoroughly under cold running water 3 to 5 times, or until the water runs mostly clear. This removes excess starch, preventing sticky rice.
⏱️ 2 min
- 3
Transfer the rinsed rice to a medium-sized pot. (Tip 1: Use a pot with a tight-fitting lid to ensure proper steaming and prevent moisture loss.)
⏱️ 1 min
- 4
Add 1 1/2 cups of water and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the pot with the rice.
⏱️ 1 min
- 5
Place the pot over medium-high heat and bring the water and rice to a rolling boil.
⏱️ 3 min
- 6
Once boiling, immediately cover the pot with its tight-fitting lid and reduce the heat to the lowest setting. Cook for 15 minutes. (Tip 2: Do not lift the lid during this cooking process, as it releases steam crucial for cooking the rice evenly.)
⏱️ 15 min
- 7
After 15 minutes, remove the pot from the heat but keep the lid on. Let the rice rest, undisturbed, for 10 minutes. (Tip 3: Do not lift the lid during this resting period; this allows the rice to absorb any remaining moisture and become fluffy.)
⏱️ 10 min
- 8
After resting, remove the lid and gently fluff the cooked rice with a fork. (Tip 4: Use a fork to fluff the rice, not a spoon, to separate the grains and prevent them from clumping together.)
⏱️ 1 min
- 9
Serve immediately as a side dish. (Tip 5: For even easier cooking, consider using a rice cooker if you have one, following its specific instructions.)
