👨‍🍳 步驟

1. 1

   Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and prevents the pudding from becoming too gummy.

2. 2

   In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is partially cooked.
