How to Microwave White Rice

⚠️ Caution! Before cooking grains, always lower your microwave’s power level as indicated in the recipe to prevent burning and protect your Anyday Dish. Need help? Check out our guide on adjusting power levels. Making white rice in the microwave is quick, easy, and foolproof. Cooking in an Anyday dish traps steam with its vented lid, ensuring the rice cooks evenly and stays fluffy. No more watching the stovetop or worrying about burning—this hands-off method saves time and eliminates the need for a separate rice cooker. With the right power level and water ratio, you’ll get perfect, fluffy rice every time. All of Anyday’s recipes are tested (and retested!) in many different microwaves and home kitchens to make sure they work—and work well. Unless specified otherwise, all recipes should be cooked at full power.
