Yep, ratio of water to rice should be 2:1. Pretty simple.

  That is a much higher ratio than I am used to - 1.2:1 for sushi rice, 1.25:1 for jasmine, 1.5:1 for basmati. What kind of rice are you cooking? On the other hand, sometimes I get lazy and cook rice like pasta, which works fine. Arbitrary amount of salted water - 5:1 or whatever - then just boil it, 'til it feels like it has the right texture, and strain it.

    Basmati. But my technique is probably heathen. I use 2:1 and then cook it uncovered in a microwave (1.5 cups of rice, 20 minutes). I love the resulting texture but it might not be for everyone. I like my rice drier and more “al dente”.
