To prepare, rinse the rice thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rinsed rice with the appropriate amount of water or broth in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover tightly, and simmer until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. Let it steam, covered, for a few minutes off the heat before fluffing with a fork. The cooking time will vary depending on the specific instructions, but it generally takes longer than white rice.
