Perfectly Steamed Rice

Steaming rice takes longer than either of the other cooking methods, but it results in no food waste. Unless the rice is over stirred while it is steaming, it tends to have a better appearance than rice prepared by the other two ways. Steamed rice, like boiled rice, can be used as a base for a wide range of recipes and served at any meal.
