1tablespoonbutter
2 3/4cupswaterplus 2 tablespoons if needed or vegetable stock

Instructions
Place the rice in a fine mesh sieve and rinse thoroughly under running water. Drain.
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over high heat.
Add the rice and toast until the water evaporates and the rice starts to smell nutty, approximately 1-2 minutes. (Do not brown.)
Stir in the water or stock and bring to a boil.
Turn the heat to low and stir in the salt. Cover and cook for 15 minutes. (You can check the rice for doneness by tasting a grain. If it’s still too firm, add the extra water, cover and remove from the heat.)
Remove from the heat and allow to stand, covered, for 5-10 minutes.
