To cook this Tropics Thai Jasmine Rice, first, rinse the rice in cold water until the water runs clear. This helps get rid of extra starch. Then, put the rice in a pot with water. Use about 1.5 to 2 cups of water for every 1 cup of rice. Bring it to a boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer for about 15 - 20 minutes with the lid on. Keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn. Once it's done, let it sit for 5 minutes before fluffing it with a fork. Store the uncooked rice in a cool, dry place in a sealed container to keep it fresh. If you have leftovers, store them in the fridge and reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop with a little water to make it moist again.
