What is the right rice to water ratio for a rice cooker?

Most rice cookers use the ratio of one cup rice to one cup water. Use this same ratio to scale up when cooking larger batches.

Dump the rice and water into the strainer to remove the cloudy water. Dump the rice back into the bowl. Repeat the process until the water is fairly clear (about 4 or 5 times). After the last strain, add the rice to your rice cooker. Add water to your rice cooker until it just covers the rice. Add a bit of salt and swish around. read more
