1. Rinse rice with cold water until water runs clear. Use a fine mesh strainer or you can do this in your cooking pot being careful not to pour out your rice.
2. Place rice into a pot with a tight-fitting lid and bring water to a boil over high heat.
3. As water begins to boil stir rice, cover, and reduce heat to low.
4. Allow rice to steam to perfection which usually takes about 20–25 minutes. Stir rice to check that it is almost completely soft before turning off heat.
5. Remove rice from heat and keep lid on for another 10 minutes to allow it to steam the rest of the way to perfection.
6. Remove lid, fluff rice with large spoon or fork, and serve. Enjoy!
