Notes
Important notes in the post. If you didn’t read the post before jumping to recipe, do go back and read so you don’t miss out the details.*Rinse rice well till water runs clear. This process is important to get rid of excess starch.*Add salt to rice from when it goes in the pot rather than when it’s cooked. This way the salt is evenly spread and absorbed by the rice.*Serve white rice with stir fries, stews, curries or any other side of choice.
