From Everyday Food
Ingredients
- 1 cup long-grain white rice

Directions
- In a medium saucepan, bring 1 1/2 cups water to a boil.
- Add rice and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cover, and reduce to a simmer. Cook until water is absorbed and rice is just tender, 16 to 18 minutes.

Serves 4.
*I used a food processor instead of a blender.
