INSTRUCTIONS
Place rice in a bowl and rinse with tap water until the water runs clear.
Set aside to soak for 10-30 minutes. Heat 1 1/2 - 2 cups water with butter
or oil and salt in a small saucepan with tight fitting lid. Drain the rice,
and when the water comes to a boil, stir into the pot. As soon as it
returns to a boil, lower the heat to the slowest simmer, cover the pot and
cook for 10 minutes. Remove from heat with the lid still on, and let rest
for 5-10 minutes. Stir well and serve.
* Use 1 1/2 cups for very firm rice and up to 2 cups for softer, fluffier
rice. The shelf age and source of the rice cause slight variations in the
amount of water which will be absorbed.
