How should I cook my rice then?
- Start by filling your pan with any amount of rice to your preference. Make sure to note the amount of rice you put in the pan. You will need this information in step 2.
- Fill your pan with water. The amount of water that you put in should be 1.5x more than the amount of rice. This means that there is a rice to water ratio of 1 to 1.5.
- Heat your pan until the water is boiling. At this point you need to place the pan on medium-high heat. Place the lid on the pan and don’t take it off.
- Leave the lid on the pan and let the rice cook until all the water has been soaked up by the rice and/or evaporated.
- Your rice is ready! Turn off your heat or place the pan on a really low heat to keep the rice warm.
