- 1 cup rice jasmine, sushi, or long grain white

Place the rice and water in a pot with a tight fitting lid and bring to a boil over medium high heat.
Turn the heat down to the barest simmer and cover with the lid and cook for 17 minutes without peeking.
When 17 minutes are up, let sit, with the lid on, for 10 minutes. When 10 minutes are up, remove the lid, fluff, and enjoy!
