Read the rice package it has basic ratio right there. But for your personal
prefference you might need 1 or 2 tbsps of water more...or less. depending
on wether you like sticky or not so sticky rice. Usually if it is a long
grain white rice it uses 1 cup rice to 2 cups liquid (water). The rice
cooker doesn't change the rice or how it absorbs water. So follow the
instructions for ratios on the rice pkg (this time). Next time try one tbsp
less water for less sticky or 1 tbsp more water for more sticky. and go
from there. (write it down.) If 1 tbsp either way works for you great then
stop. If not try 2. but usually 2 is about as far as I would go.

After that try adding some (say a tbsp) of chicken stock powder (less salty
than a cube). Or of beef stock powder or veggies stock powder.


This works just fine in my cheapie Black and Decker Rice cooker so it
should work in your more $$ model. So get out your standard 1 cup 8 fluid
oz measuring cup and make the rice.
