THE PERFECT WHITE RICE.
Note: When using this recipe, use the 2 to one ratio when making the rice, meaning 2 cups of water and one cup of rice.
Ingredients:
2 cups of water.
1 cup of rice.
1 tbs of Corn oil or you can, substitute butter or margarine.
Salt to taste.
Directions:
Boil two cups of water in a rice cooking pot, with 1 tbs of corn cooking oil, you can any oil you like, but this how we make in our family, except I created my own version with butter or margarine and it is “delicious.”
Puerto Ricans call the rice cooking pot a caldero, but you can use whatever, you usually cook your rice in. After the rice comes to boil stir your rice in, then let rice come back to boil, stir it one time, then cover it and let simmer for twenty minutes. Turn the rice off and let stand for about five minutes, Take the lid off stir with serving spoon around the edges, first working from the bottom to the top then the middle, if you follow this recipe, you will have beautiful delicious white rice every single time.
Tip:
If you like “pegao” (hard crunchy rice in the bottom of the pot) then use more oil.
Serve this rice with your favorite meats or beans.
