How to Cook Venere Black Rice
- Rinse: Rinse the rice under cold running water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.
- Measure water: Use a 1:1.75 ratio — for every 1 cup of rice, add 1¾ cups of water or broth.
- Bring to a boil: Combine rice and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Simmer: Reduce heat to low, cover with a tight-fitting lid, and simmer for approximately 40 minutes.
- Rest: Remove from heat and let the rice rest, still covered, for 5 minutes.
- Fluff and serve: Fluff with a fork and serve. Pairs beautifully with seafood, grilled vegetables, and fresh salads.
