- ¼ teaspoon salt *can substitute with 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon
Add all ingredients to a small stockpot (1 head roasted garlic, 1 cup dry white rice, 1 ¼ cups vegetable stock or chicken stock, 1 tablespoon butter or oil, ¼ teaspoon salt). Turn the heat up to high and bring it to a simmer. Do not cover the pot at all during this step.
Once it starts to bubble, give it a stir and turn the heat down to very low. Now put the lid on and set a timer for 15 minutes.
Once 15 minutes are up, turn off the stove completely. Keep the lid on. Let the rice continue to rest on the stove, covered, for 10 minutes.
Fluff and serve. Rice is ready!
