I know there's a Japanese brand called Sukoyaka Genmai that cooks like white rice. I borrowed some from my grandma once. But I have heard that other brands take a lot longer to cook.

I found this blog because I too own this rice cooker and I am looking to see if anyone knows the proper water/rice ratio for brown rice. I tried it with the same ratio as white rice, but it came out way under cooked. Is there a tried and true ratio out there for brown?<br /><br />Also, regarding the power cord that was mentioned in the comments, it is a universal grounded power cord that is used in many electronic devices. I'm sure you can buy one at radio shack or online somewhere for a few dollars.gaspedalshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05917137732914619539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11790774.post-56687754470888186362014-02-03T17:13:11.386-08:002014-02-03T17:13:11.386-08:00I looked at the unit, but the name of the manufact...I looked at the unit, but the name of the manufacturer is not on it.

I put in diced Okinawa purple sweet potato and some extra water half way between 100 and 150 and it turned out really well. Not as light as at home, but that was probably because of the potato - which it cooked perfectly! <br /><br />Thank you for your post.

I assumed that I would have to just buy a whole new unit. The cord might be in one of the boxes in my garage from when I changed grade levels and classrooms. I haven't gotten around to looking for it.

My 1/3 cup measurement is based on the Japanese rice cup that came with my regular size rice cooker. <br /><br />The amount of water depends on the rice. If it's new rice (shinmai) you have to use slightly less water. Generally, I put in enough water so that it covers the rice by about an inch. Sorry, I've never measured the water.<br /><br />Another method is the finger method. You put your fingers in the pot (it'll be harder because it's so small!) and rest them on top of the rice so your hand is as flat as you can get it without sinking into the rice. The water level should reach your second knuckles. <br /><br />I hope this helps!Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11564192492898626733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11790774.post-26406875382185549622010-12-26T17:18:09.777-08:002010-12-26T17:18:09.777-08:00Trisha,

I read your "1/3" cup rice but I am not sure about the water level for that 1/3 cup rice. Do you use the plastic cup that came with the machine? If so, how many can I use and how much water per plastic cup? HELP!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
