Rinse first

Rinsing rice in cold water until it runs mostly clear removes loose surface starch, which is what makes grains clump.

Measure the water

Water ratios depend on the type of rice and the pot, so follow the packet as a starting point and adjust to your own pan next time.

Cook gently with a lid

Bring to a simmer, cover tightly and cook on the lowest heat. Lifting the lid lets steam escape.

Rest before serving

Take the pot off the heat and leave it covered for about ten minutes, then fluff with a fork.
