This is a recipe for the most basic rice. It is just rice. No flavourings or other additions. If you are new at cooking rice, or have always had trouble getting it to come out well, this is a great place to start. Just make rice. Once you have the basic technique, you can move on to transforming it into a vast array of main and side dishes.
