Steam-Cooking the Rice

D.Schmidt
When all the water is gone, turn off the heat but leave the pot on the burner. Place lid on tight and allow rice to sit for 8-10 minutes, or until you're ready to eat. The heat in the pot will steam-cook the rice, finishing it off perfectly.

Tip: the rice will stay warm in this way for up to 2 hours, which is convenient when you're cooking other dishes, and great when you're expecting dinner guests!
