Brown rice (long-grain and short-grain) 1 cup rice to 2 1/2 cups water

Wild rice 1 cup rice to 4 cups water

Red rice 1 cup rice to 1 3/4 cups water

Jasmine rice 1 cup rice to 2 cups water

Black rice 1 cup rice to 2 cups water

--------

Ingredients

2 cups water

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup unconverted long-grain white rice

Directions

If you want to, rinse rice first, then:

In a saucepan, heat water on medium or high heat in an uncovered pot until it boils.

If you are adding salt, sprinkle it into the water now.

Stir in rice.

Return mixture to a boil.

Reduce heat to a simmer; cook, covered, until rice is done and studded with steam holes, 9 to 20 minutes (maybe about 10 to 15 minutes)

Turn heat off.

Let stand, covered, 5 to 30 minutes (maybe about 5 to 10 minutes), then fluff rice with a fork.
