Added fresh cracked sea salt, oil, fresh cracked pepper, cumin, and chili powder to water before boiling. Let boil then added 2 cups of rice. Turned out great when combined with Carne Guisada and Habichuelas Guisadas

This recipe never fails. Even with changes to the serving size. It is just like Abuelitas.

This rice is so great....it made me feel like I was back in PR! My only complaint is that it sticks to the pan really bad but I think it is totally worth it for the rice! Awesome tasting.

It's okay. The bottom turned out crispy. I took the lid off for a few seconds while steaming to check the rice. Mught have been a bad move. I'll try again some time.

GREAT RECIPE! I used long grain rice (that is what I had). I used to get the best steamed rice from a deli in St. Thomas, USVI and this recipe tastes just like it! THANK YOU!

My family loves this rice. Even my picky 2 year old daughter loves to pair this rice with bistec. I just add a little minced garlic to the oil and it comes out perfect!!! Also great with porkchops

As plain and easy as this recipe is, it was very very tasty. Probably the best rice I ever made, that's not really saying much but... you know. I did accidentally add too much salt to it (way too much), but it still tasted yummy. The good thing is that I have all these things in my pantry. With this economy, I can't afford to cook gourmet meals, so this is perfect.

really enjoyed making rice this way. rice water boiled away quickly so i added some more water to it. it did stick to the bottom of the pan but not as badly as it could have without the added water. just scraped the rice off the pan and stirred it in with the rest. tasted very nice. thanks for sharing!

I've been making rice for about 30 years and this was truly the perfect rice. I only made 4 servings and followed the rest of the recipe exactly. Lately I've been making my rice in a plastic microwave cooker and had forgotten how good really well cooked rice is. I'll always use this recipe from now on.

I wasn't a fan of this by itself, but then again, I'm usually not a fan of white rice. I threw some chicken (Cheddar Chicken) on top, and it was fantastic!

Wow...the best rice I've ever made, in my opinion! Very tasty. I also made the sofrito and habichuelas from Fivebrigs recipe. They are cooking now, can't wait to taste them!

I cooked a roast in the slow-cooker and used the broth in place of 1/3 of the water. I cooked it in the rice cooker so I didn't have to watch it, turned out great! Thanks!

I've made this quite a few times now with favorable reviews. I do the following changes. I use chicken broth or boullion cubes instead of regular water and after simmering for 25 minutes, stir from the bottom to "fluff", cover, and let steam an additional 10 to 15 minutes. The rice will separate better and it won't be as sticky and moist.

The texture of this rice was perfect! Even my Chinese, rice-loving father was pleased. The oil and ratio of water to rice does the trick. Thanks!
