Add the black rice to a pot with 2 cups of water and bring it to medium heat.

Simmer the rice for about 7 minutes, then turn off the heat and let it set for another 10 minutes.

Reserve the cooking water for another recipe before discarding it.

Return the saucepan to the heat and add butter to the pot with the rice.

Mix the rice and butter together until well combined.

Add salt to taste after the rice has cooked for about 15 to 18 minutes.

Cover the pot and let the rice cook for another 10 to 15 minutes without interruption.

Once done, check the rice; it should be glossy and steaming hot.
