For an extra layer of flavor, try using vegetable broth instead of chicken stock or water. Rinsing the rice before cooking removes excess starch, resulting in a fluffier texture. Do not lift the lid during the simmering process, as this will release steam and affect the cooking time. For brown rice, increase the cooking time to approximately 45 minutes and adjust the liquid accordingly.
