How to make rice

[Freaknificent]

I have a Sunbeam Instant Steamer Model #4710

Directions are nowhere to be found and tried googling them but to no avail.

How do i make rice cause I'm hungry... :-(

add water and the desired amount of rice via cups

1. Go to grocery store and buy a box of minute rice for <$1.50
2. Pour one cup of water into a pot and place it onto a burner on your stove.
3. Bring the water to a boil.
4. Remove pot with boiling water from the heat and add one cup of minute rice.
5. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes.
6. Enjoy! Makes 2 servings.

drop rice into bowl

add water (I typically use 2 cups of water per 1 cup of rice)

hit button on rice cooker

wait

fluff

eat

I usually add twice the water as rice, or slightly less. i.e., for one cup of rice I'll add 1.75 to 2 cups water. That gets it just about perfect.

The rice cooker should have a line to fill water. For every cup, fill one line of water.

If all you have available is just regular rice then you will have to boil the rice in water until it gets soft. I don't know how long that takes because I only use Minute Rice.

From the Rice line, add about 1/2" to .75 inch of water above it.

2 cups water to 1 cup rice.

simmer. eventually the water gets absorbed. that's when it's done.

If you're buying non instant rice remember to rinse it before you put it in the cooker.

I haven't cooked rice without a rice cooker in year, but if I remember right...

-boil water (I used to add some bullion to give the rice flavor)
-add rice
-lower heat to a simmer
-heat covered until water gets absorbed (10-15 minutes maybe? I can't remember exactly.)

1 to 1 ratio never fails. i like my rice on the firm side heh.

That's how Asians I know do it and it stands up to Alton Browns method. Actually, the Asians I know fill the water up one knuckle above the riceline. Alton Brown says you need proportionally less water as the amount of rice increases. For the typical family of four it ends up being about 1.5:1 water to rice, ime......but that's after rinsing off the rice thoroughly before hand which adds water to it in the process.
