    I think you guys are ignoring the fact that I condemned every other method of cooking rice that ISN'T in my Zojirushi rice cooker. But because this is but cheaper I gave other options because you ALWAYS complain about expensive equipment. IF I didn't give those other options then the top comments would be "OMIGOSH JOSH REEEEEE THIS IS BUT CHEAPER BUT YOU SPEND 100 DOLLARS ON A RICE COOKER???"

    I made this tonight (first time). It was really easy to make, and seems to be a good base recipe you can play around with. It was too sweet for me, so, next time, I'll take away a 1/2 tbsp of sugar, and add some sriracha sauce. I'm really surprised how straight forward this is to make. I would say even a 12 year old (who has a little experience cutting vegetables/cooking with a pan) could make this.
    Edit: I made it again tonight. I forgot to reduce the sugar, but I did add an extra 2 inches of ginger, some squirts of sriracha sauce, and only used three cups of leftover, cooked rice. I also added some powdered garlic instead of grating it fresh. It came out better than restaurant-quality! I think fresh garlic would've been better, for obvious reasons, but tonight's was really good regardless.

      Rice in a pot is the way to go! ! My personal favourite foolproof recipe would be:
      -wash your rice AT LEAST 3 times (the more the better), sometimes I even let it soak for 30 minutes or so
      -put a one to one ratio of rice and water in your pot and put it on the stove on a high temperature and give it a stir
      -when it starts to boil on the sides and the rice there starts to dance turn the heat down to the lowest, put a cloth on top of the pot and the on top of that put the lid (fold the cloth on the lid so that it doesn't burn)
      -cook it without ever opening the lid for 10 min that's it not more not less (unless you make a great amount of rice, you then cook it for 12 min)
      -once it s done take your pot of the heat and let it sit another 10-15 minutes! And tada! You got yourself some perfect non-rice cooker rice!

    This is so good. It’s our go to now- better than take out bc it has so much flavor. It’s how you want the take out to taste yet they under season to save money I assume. So easy and delicious. Also- I use long grain white rice ( uncle bens) if you make it the day before it’s preferable- but I have made the rice- stick it in the fridge around lunch time and then use it for this recipe at dinner and it works great.
