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.

We add rice and water in rice tube and fill the water reservoir, and set timer per instructions.

Put rice, water and butter in white bowl, how ever many servings you are making. Add water to reservoir as well. Set timer!

Not very good. I have this product and would like to get a different cooker just for rice

Not sure. The one I bought works ok except for the fact that there's one or two spots where the rice are soggy. I think that where it releases the steam.

One cup of rice to one and 3/4 cup of water. That ratio has worked great for me. I use long grain texmati rice.

Yes, I tried that once. It worked perfectly with the rice cooker but not dry steamer

gave mine as a gift..generally speaking two cups of water to a cup of rice is the best solution so to play it safe limit it to 2 1/2 cups of rice x5 water enough for most families firstuse 8 oz cup = rice x2w cook that amount see result inside cooker go from there press button does all for you from there.

it will work I just don't know the timing.I use a Instant Pot on the Rice setting - then I leave it for at least 20 minutes.Amazing stuff but it's too expensive here.

This is NOT a dry steamer? You will need to put the rice in a inner pot & put water in the cooker in order to cook/steam. You could do anything with this rice cooker really.

I do use a rice cooker. You can use the exact amount suggested by instructions, but I find I like just a little more water a couple of tablespoons toa 1/4 cup more. I also either add some olive oil to the water or lightly grease the bottom with solid Crisco to help prevent sticking.

Works great for rice without the basket. Pasta is tricky, with or without basket, make sure it has room to roll with the boil, or it will stick together. I use it mostly for steaming veggies with water level below the bottom of the basket.

I cook ricebut try quinoa. It comes out nice an fluffy in a short time. Everything steams very quickly.

Yes. Fill the inner pot up to the line corresponding with how many cups of rice are being cooked. Then fill the small plastic measuring cup that came with the cooker up to that corresponding number, and pour the water into the outer pot. Follow these steps and you will have perfect rice every time.

Never tried - would not imagine how you could. It is a steamer for dim sum, buns, etc. I would not use it for rice.Get a rice cooker - I like the 14 cup stainless steel one from Aroma - available at Amazon, but we got ours from Walmart.com

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.

Why do people comment if they don't want to offer an answer? First, fill the reservoir with water to the fullest level. The rule of thumb for White Rice regardless of how it's cooked, is 1 Cup uncooked White Rice to 2 Cups cold Water. Always use double the amount of water as you do rice. When it's cooked, you'll end up with approx. 2 Cups of White Rice using this equation. Put rice and water into the included Plastic basket, & set the timer according to directions. If you don't have directions for some reason, I'd look online for a replacement booklet, or use the info on the bag of rice as a guideline., My steamer takes approx 20 mins. for 1 Cup uncooked rice, it's an older version of this unit. Timing can vary for many reasons. I would check the cooking process often, and turn unit off when rice is rice is fluffy with a fork. Rice, as well as veggies will continue to cook even after the timer stops unless you remove the food from the unit. If you're fussy about overcooking, make sure you stay close by. I did have to practice with rice a couple of times before getting it just right. Once you get the timing of your favorite foods down, you'll never want to be without a steamer, and the process becomes second nature. Good luck!

It should work with both. Just watch out for the right rice-to-water ratio. Usually brown rice requires more water.

Get a PC with at least an HDMI connector and an i3 or Processor minimum and you should be ok with these two as the rest of the hardware should be fast enough HDMI connector is required for streaming to a HDTV via HDMI cable your pc should be able to stream no problem
