Cooking method

Cooking time: 30 min

Prepare all the necessary ingredients and utensils for cooking fragrant rice with butter. When cooking rice, we use a saucepan with a thick bottom. To begin with, thoroughly rinse the long-grain rice under cool running water several times until the water becomes transparent. We do this so that the rice does not stick together afterwards.
Put the prepared rice in a saucepan and add a piece of butter, put the peeled onion in the center.
Next, you need to boil water, then pour it into a separate container and mix with salt. Already with salted water, we pour rice in such a way that the liquid covers the grits by 1-1.5 cm. This is done so that the grains remain whole, otherwise (if the rice is poured with cold water, the cereal will boil). Next, the grits are allowed on a minimum heat until the water completely evaporates.
At the end of cooking, turn off the heat and leave the steamed rice under the lid for 15 minutes. We serve rice to the table hot either as an independent dish, or as a side dish to seafood or meat. I fill it with green onions.

Rice is a healthy, dietary national food product in China and Asian countries. It can be ground and unpolished. There are a very large number of varieties of this cereal, where the most popular are: basmati, jasmine, wild rice, arborio and others. Each variety is delicious in its own way and is designed for a specific dish. A wide variety of dishes are prepared from these grains, such as pilaf, risotto, paella, soups using this cereal, casseroles, including steamed rice. Such rice is a nutritious product that is easily absorbed by the body. It is ideal for those who adhere to proper nutrition, or adhere to a diet, or simply for those who cannot imagine their life without it. Steamed rice should be cooked over low heat in an enameled dish with a tight lid. This method is similar to steaming. In this case, all the nutrients and vitamins are stored in the cereal, and do not pass into the broth, as with conventional cooking.
