Steamed Rice
Ingredients:
1 Cup Medium Grain Rice
1 ⅓ Cup Water
½ tsp Salt
Preparation:
Measure out the rice and water
Place the rice in a strainer and place the strainer in a large bowl. Fill the bowl with water till the rice is fully submerged. Gently agitate the rice with your hands to remove any starch on the surface. When the water gets cloudy, drain the water and refill the bowl with water. Repeat this process until the water runs clear.
Once the rice is fully washed, add it to a medium sized pot along with ½ tsp of salt and 1 ⅓ cup of water.
Put the heat on high and bring the rice to a boil. Once the rice has been boiled for about 30 seconds to a minute, cover it and set the heat to low.
Set a timer for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, turn off the heat, but do not remove the lid and set another timer for 5 mins. This is steaming the rice with the residual heat inside the pot to create a light and fluffy texture.
After resting for 5 minutes, fluff the rice with a fork by pushing and lifting the rice.
You can serve as is or add any toppings of your choice and enjoy!

As soon as you finish letting the rice rest plate it in a bowl while it’s still steaming. Then crack a raw egg yolk into the bowl and mix it. The steam from the hot rice will start to cook the yolk. Shave a generous amount of lime rind on top and enjoy a dish like your in Japan 👌🏽 -Damian
