To boil 100g of rice, start by rinsing the rice under cold water to remove starch. Add the rice to a pot with 200g (approximately 1 cup) of water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cover the pot. Let the rice cook for 18-20 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork. This method ensures fluffy and perfectly cooked rice every time.
