1
(Note: Follow rice package instructions if they differ from below)
2
In a saucepan with a good fitting lid bring water and salt to a boil.
3
Add rice and stir.
4
Cover and reduce heat to medium low. You will know that your temperature is correct if a little steam is visible leaking from the lid. A lot of steam means your heat is too high.
5
Cook for 20 minutes.
6
Do not lift the lid! The steam that is trapped inside the pan is what allows the rice to cook properly.
7
Remove from heat and fluff with fork, season with pepper, and serve.
