Ingredients

  • 1 cup white rice, dry
  • 2 2/3 cups tap water
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. In a 3-quart saucepan, bring the water, salt, and butter to a rolling boil. Add in the dry rice and stir.
  2. Reduce the heat to very low, a simmer, and cover.
  3. Check the rice after 12 minutes and stir. If it's gooey-looking or still wet, re-cover and check it again in 5 more minutes. It should be done at this point.
  4. Fluff it up with a spoon and take it off the heat. Cover again until you're ready to serve.
