[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I recently bought a rice cooker and am underwhelmed or else am an idiot and am doing it wrong (it’s possible). I got the Aroma brand which is cheap but was recommended by wirecutter.

The rice comes out too dry and sticky or else mishy and sticky every time. I always thoroughly pre-rinse the rice, and I follow the directions! I make better (and quicker) rice on the stovetop. [/quote]
I am by no stretch of the imagination a good cook, but I really don't see how it's hard to make rice with a medium/large saucepan + lid.

Whatever quantity of rice(proportional to the pot), twice that of water/chicken broth, bring to a boil, lower to simmer, put lid on, timer set for 15 minutes(for white rice, longer for yellow), look at it after timer goes off, if it's a little watery, let a go a few more minutes.

It comes out just fine every time.[/quote]

I have some fancy basmati rice where the directions actually tell me to strain the rice! So clutch on those pearls everyone. It comes out really nicely![/quote]

My brother dated a girl from Bangladesh for a while and she cooked the rice in a lot of water and strained it. [/quote]
