Rinse the rice in a large saucepan under cold water, swirling until the water runs mostly clear, then drain. Add 2 1/2 cups water and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to the lowest setting, cover tightly, and cook until all the water is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let steam, covered, for 10 minutes.
