Some additional tips for cooking rice in a rice cooker that can be discussed in your group:
1. Use a rice washing bowl to rinse the rice thoroughly before cooking. This will remove excess starch and impurities from the rice.
2. Soak the rice in water for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help the rice to cook evenly and absorb moisture better.
3. For brown rice, use 2 1/2 cups of water per cup of rice, and cook for a longer time than white rice.
4. Once the rice is cooked, let it sit in the rice cooker for 10-15 minutes before serving. This will allow the rice to absorb any remaining moisture and become fluffier.
5. Use a non-stick rice cooker bowl or add a tablespoon of oil to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the bowl.
