Stovetop rice

Wash the rice in cold water and drain; repeat two to three times.

Add one cup of water to the cup of rice for a firmer rice.

Bring the water up to a boil, watching it; right when it hits the boil, turn the heat down to just above low.

Stir the rice, cover with a lid and cook 10 minutes.

Take off the heat and let it steam 10 minutes; nothing should stick to the bottom of the pan.
