Plain Boiled Rice
Ingredients
Directions
Pick the rice carefully, removing any bad or broken grains.
Wash the rice in cold water two to three times, rubbing it between your palms.
Place the rice in a saucepan and cover it with enough cold water.
Heat the saucepan until the grains begin to burst, then remove from heat.
