To Boil Rice

Ingredients

• 1 cup rice
• water
• coarse sea salt

Directions

1. Pick over the rice carefully and wash it in warm water, rubbing it between your hands.

2. Rinse the rice in several waters, then let it soak in cold water until ready to cook.

3. In a saucepan, bring salted water to a boil.

4. Pour off the cold water from the rice and gradually sprinkle the rice into the boiling water to keep the grains separated.
