can you make sushi rice with this cooker. I understand it requires vinegar.

Yes,you just cook sushi rice like a .regular rice. I cook sweet rice in my rice cooker ,and they are more stickier than sushi rice.

I would mix in the rice vinegar after the rice is cooked. However, there are instant sushi mix "Mishima brand" that I have used (sushi mix and takikomi mix). Right before cooking your rice add instant sushi mix into your uncooked rice and cook. This is quick and easy, if you don't have the time. You might want to research for other instant sushi brands out there.

For sushi rice, you have to use the short grain japanese sticky rice and just cook it like regular rice. You only add the vinegar when the rice is already cooked. You can also google it to find out - some people use the rice vinegar (marukan brand) to taste.

Yeah, you can use short grain rice for sushi. It's stickier than long grain rice.

Yes, it does. The cook settings are white/mix, sushi, porridge, sweet, brown, rinse-free and quick cooking. In addition, it also water measurement points for white, sushi or brown rice.

It is very good rice for making sushi;however, the ratio of vinegar and sugar is very important.

I think this cooker is pretty drying, so I use a 1:1.5 rice to water ratio, but it also depends on how you would like the rice to be done. I believe you have to rinse the rice, but not too much in case the nutrition might be washed off.

Hi. I bought this rice cooker a couple years ago but had to return it because it's defective after using it once. You have to contact the seller in order for you to get an answer.

Just use this... The rice cooker I bought in Japan was working here, but not working correctly. This solved the problem. I've had it for 2 months and it gets used almost daily and its been working great so far.

This cooker is multi purpose rice cooker. You can make any kind of rice with this.

Yes...but it's not the most helpful (contradicts itself). Basic instructions are 1 part rice to 2 parts water - brown and wild rices need a bit more water...sometimes I add a bit more when it's done cooking and let it stay on warm for a bit. I'm sure you can find a manual online...try here http://www.fixya.com/support/browse/rice_cookers_and_steamers or maxi-matic.com

No. This rice cooker is meant for cooking rice. However, you can always add extra water when cooking rice and shut off the rice cooker manually after half and hour. You will get porridge but not a perfect porridge.

I haven't been able to. Using as little as ¾ cup steel cut oats, on either brown or white rice settings, the water ALWAYS boils over, getting starchy water all over the top of the rice cooker and spilling onto the counter. I've determined a larger rice cooker is needed to make oats for 2 people. If others can do it, I'd love to know how.

Yes..the rice cooker makes the rice a bit sticky, and I like it that way. Just add a little more water then recommended, and make the rice a little moister. Hope this helps!

I cook it in chicken stock instead of water, and found near the end I needed to add more water. I just cook mine in a heavy 2 qt. pot with a tight fitting lid and it does fine. Never tried a "rice-cooker" just never saw the need for one. Love this rice, melt a little white cheese over the top of a serving and you have a great lunch!! Yummmmm

I do not know where you can get a new rice basket for the cooker.I only use a wooden spoon so I don't scratch the basket.Have you try contacting Sanyo .

I must be doing something wrong. My rice in pressure cooker is awful. But then I usually only make brown rice.

Sorry. I never tried. I only use it to cook white rice and brown rice and they turn out perfectly.

You would have to experiment but I'm sure you could. I've only cooked rice in mine. Really it's just a really good Bon stick plus it retains the moisture really well. It's really well made and easy to clean.
