I find salting white rice during cooking to be a waste of seasoning. You gonna have to use a lot of salt for it to maje any noticable, when its so much easier to just eat it with a well seasoned dish. And on the opposite end of the spectrum, if you accidentally overseasoned your rice you are fucked, whereas an overseasoned dish is also much easier to salvage.
Also, my asian ass cringes at that water ratio. That is way too much water. You are practically making gruel at that point.
Sorry, He-Man, but this time your advice is off the mark.
