2. Then pour appropriate water and wash the rice, commonly known as rice washing. Pour the water into the rice cooker, then take a wooden spoon to scoop the rice, stir the rice and wash it. Then pour away the water.
3. After washing the rice, add appropriate amount of water. The amount of water is determined based on the amount of rice. The ratio of water to rice is 1:1, which is one bowl of rice and one bowl of water. If there are two bowls of rice, then put two bowls of water. Take the bowl used to stamp rice and stamp some water. Due to the different places of rice production and different tastes of each person, the amount of water used is also slightly different. If the steamed rice is too dry or too thin, you can appropriately reduce or increase the amount of water used, and you will gain experience over time! Then wipe away the water around the inner pot of the rice cooker, otherwise there may be a risk of electric shock.
4. Then, put the inner pot into the rice cooker and close the lid. Plug in the rice cooker and press the power button to start steaming rice.
