To prepare, rinse the rice 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, and simmer for the time specified on the package, typically around 15-20 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender. Let it stand, covered, for a few minutes before fluffing with a fork. This method ensures evenly cooked grains.
