Instructions

• Place rice and water in a medium size saucepan over medium high heat, no lid.
• Bring to a simmer – the edges should be bubbling, the middle should be rippling, the surface will be foaming.
• Place a tight fitting lid on, then turn heat down to medium low (low for strong stoves).
• Cook for 12 minutes – DO NOT LIFT LID.
• Tilt saucepan, then take a QUICK peek to ensure all water is absorbed – be super quick, then clamp lid back on.
• Remove from heat, leave for 5 to 10 minutes with lid on, then fluff with fork and marvel at fluffy rice!
• Note – Large batches will take slightly longer – about 13 minutes for 2 cups, about 15 minutes for 4 cups (use a pot).
