Rice Cooker?

I think it's usually not rinsing the rice enough. You need to rinse it a lot until the water is almost clear, then leave it to soak and rinse some more.
 
Wash the rice really well.
Pan of boiling water little bit of salt in.
Add the rice, cook until it still has bite then drain.
Add more boiling water simmer for a minute or two turn off the heat and leave.
Drain and serve.

I only have that second step because i prefer the taste of jasmine rice but it can be too sticky.

I don't like the measure the water out method never works perfectly for me, i don't like overcooked rice either.


Drain, WTF?

There should be the correct ratio of water to rice to begin with so no draining is needed. Once the rice has absorbed the main water you need to keep it cooking gently to allow the steam to continue to fluff up the rice.

Ever thought that's not the only way to cook rice.

(What would they know)

I have found it a much better way of cooking rice, the bonus is it works for what ever rice you use, all rices need different ratios if you go for the traditional method, open pan you just fill the pan. Plus like i said if you cook jasmine rice like that it certainly wont be fluffy.

There is also some studdies that say open pan method is better for you, as arsenic is cleaned away more.
  • High consumers of rice may wish to consider cooking methods which reduce arsenic concentration in rice.
  • On behalf of the FSA, a study was undertaken to look at the effect of cooking methods on levels of arsenic in rice. Rinse washing was effective at removing around 10% of the inorganic arsenic from basmati rice, but was less effective for other rice types. High volume water:rice cooking (6:1) removed inorganic arsenic by 45% compared to uncooked (raw) rice.
