Bring the water and salt to boil in a medium saucepan.
Stir in the rice and bring to a light simmer.
Cover the pot and turn the heat down low, so that the water stay at a simmer.
After 17 minutes, check to see if the water is all absorbed. If you have a glass lid saucepan just tip it slightly to see if any water emerges. (Rice takes 17-25 minutes to fully cook.)
Remove from the heat and let it sit for another 1-2 minutes to finish absorbing any liquid.
Remove the lid, fluff the rice with a fork and serve hot.
