Perfect Steamed Jasmine Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Place jasmine rice in an ovenproof small pot; wash with cold water and drain off the water.
• Add clean cold water into the pot to the depth of the second line of your middle finger while touching the surface of the rice.
• Preheat oven to 375°F
• Bring rice and water to a boil; when the water starts to boil, remove from heat and cover the pot.
• Place into the oven and bake for 18 minutes.
• Remove from oven and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Wash rice in several changes of cold water in a bowl until water is clear, then drain in a sieve. Combine with water and salt in a 1 1/2- to 2-quart saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cook, covered, until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

Steps:

• Put the rice in a medium bowl and fill with cold water. Gently agitate the rice to loosen any dust and sediment clinging to the rice and drain through a fine mesh sieve. Repeat 2 more times.
• Transfer the rice to a medium saucepan and shake the pan to level the rice. Add enough water so that when you place the tip of your index finger on the top of the rice, the water comes up to the first crease (joint) of your finger. Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid and place over high heat. As soon as the rice comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low and cook for 20 minutes. Transfer the rice to a large bowl and fluff with a heatproof spatula.
