Jasmine Rice Cooking Instructions

Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until it runs clear. Use a fine-mesh strainer for an easy rinse. This helps eliminate excess surface starch, preventing a sticky or mushy consistency.

Combine the rinsed jasmine rice with water in a pot. The stove top rice to water ratio is 1 cup of rice to 1 1/2 cups of water. Bring it to a boil over medium heat.

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid, and let it simmer for 15-18 minutes.

After cooking, let the rice sit for a few minutes, then fluff it with a fork. Your stovetop jasmine rice is now ready to eat!

Rinse the jasmine rice and place it in the rice cooker. Add water using the recommended jasmine rice water ratio above.

Simply press the cook button and let the rice cooker work its magic. It will automatically switch to warm once done.

Allow the rice to rest for a few minutes after it finishes cooking. This step is crucial for perfect texture and flavor.

Fluff the rice with a wooden spoon, and your rice cooker will effortlessly produce flawless jasmine rice.

Rinse your jasmine rice using the inner pot of the instant pot. Place the rinsed rice in the Instant Pot. Add water according to the jasmine rice water ratio.

Select the high-pressure setting and set the timer for 5 minutes; the Instant Pot will do the rest. Easy peasy!

Once the time is up, allow the Instant Pot to release pressure for about 10 minutes naturally.  Then, Use a long wooden spoon to help release the rest of the steam. The full cycle of the natural release oftentimes makes the rice mushy.

After releasing pressure, fluff the rice with a wooden spoon so as not to scratch the bottom of the pot. Your Instant Pot jasmine rice is now ready to serve!

Rinse jasmine rice and place it in a microwave-safe container. Add water and microwave on high for 10-12 minutes.

Fluff the rice, and there you have it – a quick and easy microwave jasmine rice method.
