Place the above ingredients into a "National Rice Cooker / Vege Steamer" switch it on. When it switches off, you've got 15 minutes to wait. Alternatively, place the above ingredients, (less the Rice Cooker), in an ordinary covered pot, and boil gently (OK, go ahead, burn the rice!) until all the water is gone. Remove heat source, and let set (covered) for 15 minutes. The National brand rice cookers, some models of which also double as vegetable steamers, are infallible for producing perfect steamed white rice. Well, you CAN forget to turn it on. There are other brand names, but I can't vouch for their quality or performance. I've had my rice cooker for 6 years, and have zero (0) null, nill, no, nada complaints about it. Well, it doesn't clean itself.... -- {ucbvax,decvax,ihnp4}!sun!sunny (Sunny Kirsten of Sun Microsystems Inc.)
