Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.

Instructions

1
Place the rice in a fine-mesh strainer and rinse under cold running water, stirring with your hand, until the water running through runs mostly clear, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
2
Combine the rinsed rice, water, and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, uncovered, until the surface is bubbling vigorously.
