Cooking Steps
- To a medium pot, add 1 cup (2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Meanwhile, using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
- To the boiling water, add rice and edamame, then reduce heat to medium-low.
- Cover and cook for 12-14 min, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. (NOTE: Reduce heat to low if water is boiling over.)
- Stir in half the vinegar and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar.
- Remove the pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.
