Has anyone used this rice with a rice mold?

I doubt it. It would dry and be too tough to eat. Any of the other rices will. My family has eaten sticky rice for 40 years. In fact, we soak the raw rice for 3 hours then steam it in a bamboo basket where no water touches the rice. That is what they do in Laos. Other countries boil it and make deserts out of it.

The rice mold is, but I have never put the punch in the dishwasher. It's metal and I prefer to avoid getting water in it. I put the mold in one of the munchkin baby dishwasher cages though as our dishwasher chews up floating plastics.

Yes, I tried it this evening. I followed the stovetop package instructions on the rice, which was one cup of Costco Jasmine rice, a cup and half of water (twice that would have fit comfortably) and cook for 25 minutes. The rice was perfect. I have to watch it carefully on the stove because it can dry out too soon. It was sooooooo easy in the steamer and the outcome was better!

I have the same question. It seems like the 1:2 ratio (rice ; water) doesn't work. There was a mess of steamed out water around. It's weird there is no clear instruction in the instructions.

never made rice in it, but have made oatmeal in it. so I would think if you can make one you could make the other.

Yes the mesh is fine enough to rinse rice. Just to make sure, I just put a handful of rice into the strainer and the mesh is definitely fine enough NOT to let the rice fall through it.

Hate to say it, but I'm having the same experience. I'm definitely following the instructions correctly (correct measure, filling to the right line, fluffing, etc.), but my brown rice (all we use) is coming out mushy every time. I've tried a few varieties with the same results.Anyone have any ideas?

I do believe that any mold will work although I have not tried it before...not much help I know - but it is worth a try if you have extra sugarveil - good luck!

Yes, I have. I have to clean it out every couple of days. The rate that the water fills the bowl is not enough to clean the mold and the water does not circulate.

I haven't tried it but it is timed for mochi rice. Rice comes out al dente.

You can use a rice cooker with any rice but it'll be almost the same hardness as uncooked. It will puff if you do it on the stove with double the water and double the time.

I have never used mine for rice. It does a great job steaming fish, poultry, and vegatables.

Yes I cook rice in it all the time and it works great. As a matter of fact that is the only thing I've cooked in it so far.

I do not have a rice cooker, but would assume so. It may change the texture depending on how long they cook for.

I mix it with rice milk in a plastic container that I shake by hand. It mixes pretty well as long as I don't try to make it too thick. I find it mixes acceptably.

Cleaning is very easy. Just remove the rice pot and clean with non-abrasive soft (dishwasing solution) with a soft sponge. I wipe the exterior after each use and leave the cover lid open when not in use. I do a weekly wipe down of the interior and under the lid. Never had any mold problem since mold survives on residual moisture which I don't have.Hope this helps.
