Perfect Jasmine Rice
Jasmine rice is the typical rice that is used all over Southeast Asia. Perfect steamed jasmine rice is no easy feet. Here is my fool proof way to perfect rice without a rice cooker or instant pot.
Ingredients
- 2 cups jasmine rice
- 2 cups hot water from tap
Instructions
- If you are using an electric stove, pre-heat stove to medium-high. If you are using gas, you can wait until you're ready to cook the rice and then turn on the burner to med-high.
- Rinse the jasmine rice by running under the tap and rigorously agitate using your hand.
- Repeat 3-4 times. The water will not be clear but will be considerably more clear.
- Add to a non-stick sauce pot along with 2 cups of hot water and cover
- Bring to a boil and boil for two minutes.
- After two minutes, drop the heat to low/simmer and simmer for 13 minutes.
- After 13 minutes, remove from heat and let sit for 3 minutes and then fluff with a fork or chopsticks.
- Serve immediately.
