Works great indeed. Another useful trick is to use a microwave. Simply put rice and the water in an open container in the microwave. Let it go at full blast for 14-15 minutes. Keep going until the water is gone. Let it sit for a few minutes and done. You get perfectly fluffy rice every time. Works great for small portions and it won't boil over.

I learned about this trick only a few years ago and when I tried it, I basically got a perfect result. Which was not what I was expecting.

How about the seasoning? Years ago I used to do this microwave rice but I threw in some powdered flavoring and it would boil & stick everywhere :/

The seasoning is better added and mixed immediately after taking the rice out from the oven, when it is hot and soft.

If you want to add some kind of oil, that is also better added immediately after taking the rice out of the oven.

If you add salt or sugar, then that should be added before cooking in the oven.
