Keep Rice From Sticking Together With Lemon Juice

Making rice isn’t rocket science, but keeping it from sticking together when you want that fluffy texture can be tough. The fix is easy: just add a few squeezes of lemon juice to the cooking water.

You won’t even notice the taste of the lemon juice and you’ll end up with clump-less rice that’s still fluffy and easy to portion out and serve. Add one teaspoon of juice to the water for your rice, then cook as normal. As a bonus, the lemon juice will help keep your rice beautifully white, which makes your food look even tastier.
