Rinse the rice in a fine-mesh sieve under cold water for 30 seconds. Drain.
Combine the rice, salt and 2 cups water in a wide, medium saucepan and bring the water to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer until all liquid is absorbed, about 30 minutes.
Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for 10 minutes.
Fluff with a fork before serving.
