Pre heat your oven to 375 degrees.Bring the stock to a boil in a saucepan.Place the rice on the bottom of the baking dish, making sure to make it level. Top the rice with the sea salt and coconut oil.When the stock comes to a boil, pour it over the rice.Quickly cover the baking dish tightly with a layer of parchment paper and then aluminum foil. Make sure that it's a tight fit, as you want the rice to steam, and if it's not tight then the stock will evaporate. Note: You can just use aluminum foil to cover your rice, but as I said in an earlier post, aluminum foil is known to leach aluminum into food, so it's best to use a layer of parchment as a barrier when cooking with aluminum foil. I know the foil isn't touching the rice here, but there will condensation which can drop from the foil into the rice. In my opinion it's better to be safe than sorry, but that's just me being anal, so it's really up to you!Bake the covered rice in the pre heated 375 degree oven on the middle rack for exactly 1 HOUR! Do not check the rice, just set your timer for 1 hour and walk away. It will cook up perfectly if you followed the above instructions. I've done this method 10 times and my rice cooks up perfectly every time! That's why I LOVE it so much!After 1 hour, remove the cover and fluff the rice with a fork.
