Tips

– The ratio of rice to water is important for perfect long grain rice. For every cup of long grain white rice, you will need 1 ½ cups of water.
– After fluffing the rice with a fork, let the rice cool for 5 minutes before serving. This helps the grains to absorb any remaining liquid and will help to achieve a light, fluffy texture.
