Rinse the rice in a medium saucepan under cold water, swirling and draining 3–4 times until the water runs mostly clear. Add 1 1/4 cups fresh water, cover, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to the lowest setting and cook, covered, for 12 minutes. Remove from heat and let steam, still covered, for 10 minutes.
