Rice with Soy-Glazed Bonito Flakes and Sesame Seeds

Wash 300g Japanese short-grain rice thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear.

Combine the washed rice with 400g water in a medium pot; bring to a rolling boil over high heat.

Reduce heat to low, cover the pot tightly, and simmer for 15 minutes; then let stand off heat for 10 minutes.
