Soak
Rice loves soaking.
Before cooking, be sure to rinse and soak the rice to wash off the adhering starch from the grains.
Rice is soaked in hot and salty water.
Hot water
Pilaf loves hot water.
Pour rice immediately with hot water, so it will cook faster and better.
Roasting
Rice likes to be fried a little.
Before cooking, rice must be fried, that is, dried in a pan, and then poured with water and already brought to readiness.
Steam
Pilaf loves a lot of steam.
In addition, this means that in order for the rice to cook crumbly, you need to cook the rice under a closed lid and after cooking, cover the pan with a towel.
Steam holes on the surface of cooked rice indicate that it is fully cooked.
