How to Choose a Rice Cooker
If you have never used a rice cooker, then you are missing out on one of the best kitchen appliances available. A rice cooker makes cooking rice so simplistic, you'll wonder how you got along without it. No more glugged rice that sticks together. Your rice will come out perfectly each and every time you use it.
You will be pleasantly surprised to learn that rice cookers can cook so much more than just rice. They are a versatile little unit that can be used to cook soups, stews, desserts, cereals and even steam vegetables. However not all rice cookers can perform these functions, so if you are looking for the versatility of the rice cooker, then you will need to shop around.
There are basically two types of rice cookers. The first ones are the cookers that can perform most of the functions mentioned above, and they come with "fuzzy logic". They have a few more gadgets and usually have a basket that you can use to steam your vegetables in. The main function is to cook rice, although you can use them for a lot more.
The second type of rice cooker is the dedicated rice cooker. These are basically a cooker/steamer type of cooker. They don't perform the extra functions of the "fuzzy logic" cookers.
The best thing to do is to first decide what you want your rice cooker to do. If you are interested only in cooking rice, then a dedicated rice cooker is probably what you are looking for. However, if you are interested in cooking puddings, stews, soups etc then you a fuzzy logic cooker is probably your best choice. Try not to be lured into all the different functions of a fuzzy logic rice cooker, if you really only want it to cook rice. You will be spending more money on a cooker that has more functions and possibly never use any of them.
Be sure to buy a cooker that is relevant to the amount of rice you plan to cook. If you have a large family, then an 8 – 10 cup size cooker is most likely going to be what you need, rather than a smaller cooker for only 1 or 2 people.
If you are a big rice eater, then a rice cooker could be the best kitchen appliance you have ever invested in. It takes the hard work out and cooks perfect rice every single time.
The Zojirushi Home Total rice cooker is highly recommended as it cooks all varieties of rice, including Gaba brown rice. It also has a warmer function and is a rice cooker that is very easy to use

How do you cook sushi rice in a rice cooker?
I just bought a Cuisinart 8-cup rice cooker and tried to cook sushi rice in it for the first time. It was a disaster! Waaay to sticky & mushy. I cooked Japanese sweet rice and used the ratio recommended on the package (not for rice cookers) which was 1 1/c cups of rice to 3 cups of water. My instruction booklet did not give a ratio for this type of rice but it has another one for "sushi rice" which is 3 cups of rice, using the rice cooker measuring cup, and 2 1/4 cups of water plus 2 tablespoons of sake. Perhaps I should have used that? When I added 3 cups of water to the rice in the cooker, it came to the "2" line. What did I do wrong??? I have made nearly perfect sushi rice on the stove before but wanted the cooker for convenience. Help!!
I find that regardless of the type of rice (except wild, which isn't actually rice) go with the cooker instructions not the instructions on the package of rice. If you put in a cup of rice, fill with water to the "1" line on the cooker and so forth. On that scale, it looks like you added almost twice as much water as you should of (1 cup of rice, but filled liquid to the "2" line). That being said, when I try a new brand or type of rice that I have not cooked before, I normally err on the side of a little less liquid just to be safe - you can always add more, but you can't get too much out of the rice once it is in there. Fill to just a little below the appropriate line and if the results come out too dry and firm, pour some additional liquid over the rice and restart the machine.
