2) Add water

The trick to perfect rice really depends on the water to rice ratio, for every 1 cup of rice you should add 1 3/4 cup of water. 

If you have washed your rice first, simply bring the water to a boil in a pot and then add the rice. Also add a pinch of salt. 

If you've toasted your rice in a pan, then add the water and some salt into the pan and bring it all to a boil.
