Add the water, rice, and optional salt to a large saucepan or pot with a tight-fitting lid, and set over medium high heat. When the water is bubbling gently but evenly and the surface is a bit foamy, stir once to loosen, and then turn the heat to low and cover with the lid.Cook on low for 13 minutes without stirring or removing the lid, after which time the water should all be absorbed (tilt the pot to check) and the rice should be tender.Remove the pot from the heat, and let sit, covered, for 10 minutes. Remove the lid, fluff with a fork, and stir in optional butter or olive oil. Serve hot.
