Step-by-Step Method
Prep the rice
Rinse the rice 2–3 times until the water runs mostly clear. If you have time, soak for 5 minutes, then drain for fluffier grains.
Add the green onion
Add the rice to a pot. Stir in the sliced green onion so the flavor spreads through the grains.
Cook gently
Pour in the water. Bring to a light boil, then reduce to low, cover, and cook about 15–20 minutes until the water is absorbed. Avoid stirring; just check once to prevent sticking.
Rest and serve
Remove from heat and sprinkle in the black pepper. Keep covered for 5 minutes, then fluff gently and serve warm.
