How to Make Rice. Making rice is easy. Pour the amount of rice you want for your meal into a saucepan. Rinse the grains well. Add enough water to just cover the rice. Here’s a tip for measuring the amount of water to add. Hold your index finger at the point where it just touches the top of the rice in the pot. Include enough water to reach the first knuckle on your finger. It’s a simple method that works every time. Bring rice to a boil then cover and simmer on low heat until done.
