Soak the rice in warm salty water for about an hour.

Heat chicken stock in a pan.

Melt butter in another smaller pan.

If the garlic cloves are too big, cut them in half; otherwise, keep them whole.

Add garlic to the chicken stock along with 1 tsp sugar and 2 tsp salt.

Add grape vinegar to balance the garlic aroma.

Once everything is boiling, add the rinsed and drained rice.

Close the lid and simmer on low for about 20 minutes or until the water is absorbed.

Let it rest for another 15-20 minutes before serving.

Use a wide ladle to gently fold the rice from down to up to make it fluffy.
