How to cook it

Perfect every time

  1. Boil. Bring 1 cup rice and 1¾ cups water to a boil.
  2. Simmer. Cover and simmer on low for 30–35 minutes.
  3. Steam. Remove from heat, keep covered 10 minutes, then fluff and serve.

Instant Pot? 1 cup rice + 1 cup water on High pressure for 15 minutes, then quick-release. Like it softer? Use 1¼ cups water.

Rice cooker? Same ratio as stovetop, about 35 minutes. Too firm? Add 1–2 Tbsp liquid and cook a little longer.

Heads up: the cooking water turns a deep violet. That’s the natural pigment, not dye.

Love this black pearl rice
