I love rice. My cousins are Japanese. Means nothing, but, when I cook up a pot of rice, the ratio is 2 to 1. That is, a simple sauce pan of, say two cups of water, brought to boil. Add your ONE cup of rice. a pad of margerine will prevent overflow etc. Simmer covered for about 15 minutes. ‘till all water is absorbed. You’re done. Simple.
When people say to “Drain” rice. No way Hosea!!
One should never drain rice. Nutrients are washed away when you do that. Rice is Nice. Can be better than potatoes / spuds. Also, a hefty snifter of some good Brandy will help that pot of rice cook up, while you’re waiting. I know it helped Me to write this schtick!! 2 to 1 that’s the basic. Thank You Flutherr-group!! Yes!!

Add more water to your rice cooker to begin and once it is cooked leave it sit on warm for about ten extra minutes

Measure as much rice you want in a measuring cup, Then in the rice cooker pot there is measuring indicator on the side, pour the the cup or cups of rice in the pot then add water according to how much cups of rice you used to the measuring indicator line..

you also want to wash the rice before cooking it…
