    2 1/4 c. long-grain white rice, jasmine rice, or basmati rice
    3 c. water

Instructions

* Rise and drain rice
* Combine rice and water. Stir the rice as you add in the water, but do NOT stir it again once you've turned the heat on - ever.
* Set the pot over medium-heat and patiently wait as it comes to a boil. Let it boil until the water level drops below the level of the rice (the rice will be peeking through the top). Turn the heat down to the lowest setting possible, place the kitchen towel over the top of the pot, and cover the rice with the pot’s lid. Bring the edges of the towel up and twist around the handle of the lid so they aren't dangling down near the heat element.
* Set a timer for 15 minutes and walk away. Once that timer goes off, turn the heat off entirely and let the rice sit for 10 more minutes before taking off the lid. After 10 minutes, remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork. Serve hot.
