How to Make Basic Cooked Rice

1. Rinse 1 cup of uncooked long-grain white rice in a fine-mesh sieve until the water runs clear.
2. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, 2 cups of water, and a pinch of salt.
3. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
4. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan tightly with a lid, and simmer for 15 minutes.
5. After 15 minutes, remove from heat and let the rice stand, covered, for 5 minutes.
6. Fluff the rice with a fork before serving. Enjoy immediately or store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
