Re: [CnD] Regular white rice in the microwave

[Penny Reeder via Cookinginthedark]

For a long time, I have used the recipe for cooking rice in the
microwave that I got from this list many years ago! Combine 2 cups
regular, long-grain rice with 3-1/2 cups water, a half tsp. of salt,
and a Tablespoon of butter in microwave-safe container (I use a large
pyrex measuring cup). Microwave on high (full power) for 10 minutes.
Do not stir. Microwave on Medium-Low (Power 3 or 4) for 15 more
minutes. Fluff with fork and enjoy! This makes perfect rice, and, when
I don't use a rice cooker, I always use this method.

Enjoy!
Penny

 Hi There,

 I found this recipe on the food network internet site.  I have been cooking
 rice this way for quite some time.

 1 cup white rice, not minute
 2 cups water or liwquid
 1 tsp butter or margarine
 1/8 tsp salt

 Place rice, warm liquid, salt, and butter in a two quart microwave safe dish
 with lid.
 Microwave on high for 5 minutes
 Remove from microwave and stir
 Return dish to microwave and cook on 50% power for 15 minutes
 When microwave shuts off, fluff rice and let stand for 5 minutes.  If rice
 is not completely cooked, return to microwave.  Make sure there is enough
 liquid if you need to cook it longer.  I have never had to cook rice longer
 that the total time of 20 minutes.  Good luck.
