i cook my rice a lot different than most people do, and using a rice cooker wouldn't work for the way i cook it.
how is that?
first i put some onions in the pot sliced up and some oil (like to coat the bottom) and i let the onions get soft and heat up.
then i put in the rice and i constantly stir it up while it is heating the rice all over for about 5-10 minutes till al lthe rice is slightly covered in oil and it is starting to brown slightly from the heat.
then i add in the water and keep the top off till it boils, then i put the top on it till the water has all steamed out.
i only use jasmine or long grain brown rice, but for brown rice i need to put water in like 3 times.
my (now) fiancee taught me this when i first met her and i have never cooked rice differently since. it tastes so much better than just steaming rice. i do not even like normal steamed rice because its so damn plain tasting.
and i think there is a name for cooking rice this way but im not sure what it is.
