Ingredients: - 2kg of rice - Water - Salt (optional)
Instructions: 1. Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch. 2. In a large pot, add the rinsed rice and cover with water. The general rule of thumb is to use 1.5 to 2 cups of water for every cup of rice. 3. Add a pinch of salt if desired for flavor. 4. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot with a lid. 5. Let the rice simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until all the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. 6. Fluff the rice with a fork before serving.

Ingredients:
- 2 kg (4.4 pounds) white or brown rice - 6 cups water - 1 tablespoon salt (optional)
Instructions:
1. Rinse the rice: Rinse the rice in a fine-mesh sieve under cold running water until the water runs clear. This will remove excess starch and prevent the rice from becoming sticky. 2. Combine rice and water: In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine the rinsed rice, water, and salt (if using). Stir well to combine. 3. Bring to a boil: Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. 4. Reduce heat and simmer: Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for the following time: - White rice: 15-18 minutes - Brown rice: 45-50 minutes 5. Check for doneness: After the specified time, fluff the rice with a fork and check for doneness. The rice should be tender and fully cooked, with no uncooked or hard kernels remaining. 6. Remove from heat: Remove the pot from the heat and let the rice stand, covered, for 10-15 minutes. This will allow the rice to steam and absorb any remaining moisture. 7. Fluff and serve: Fluff the rice with a fork or spoon and serve. Enjoy!
Tips:
- For chewier rice, reduce the amount of water by 1/4 cup. - For softer rice, increase the amount of water by 1/4 cup. - If your rice is too wet, spread it out on a baking sheet and place it in a warm oven with the door slightly open for 10-15 minutes, or until the excess moisture has evaporated. - Rice can be kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop before serving.
