Where to find ingredients

Preparation method
- Place the rice, water, salt, and star anise into the pressure cooker
- Stir everything gently with a spoon
- Cover the pot and place it over high heat
- When the pot starts whistling indicating pressure, lower the heat

- Open the pot safely and remove the star anise
- Transfer the rice to a bowl
- Serve the dish while still hot
Observations
This cooking method results in rice with a soft texture that is slightly sticky. It is an excellent choice for accompanying Asian-inspired dishes or any meal that calls for a distinct aromatic touch.
