Place the rice in a bowl, then pour hot water to completely cover it and let it sit for 15 minutes to soften the grain. Once the time has passed, drain and rinse under cold water as many times as necessary until the water runs as clear as possible. This step will help reduce the amount of starch in the rice so that it doesn't become sticky; moreover, it will be more digestible when consumed. Allow the rice to dry as much as possible; if necessary, place it on absorbent paper. Blend the onion, tomato, chicken broth, and enough salt. Set aside.
