Rice is the staple of Japan, so most Japanese have a rice cooker at home and we eat rice in almost every meal.

Using a rice cooker is simple and effective way to cook rice, so here I will show you how! If you use a rice cooker, you don't have to watch the rice cooker once you start it! So meanwhile, you can cook other dishes.

Note: Japanese rice is short grain rice and gets sticky when it is cooked. So, make sure you don't use long grain rice because it is drier and doesn't stick together.
