Should i follow the directions that come with the package or just cook it the way i normally do.i use basmati rice.i bring four cups to a boil salt and oil and then add the rice when its boiling turn it down and stir until the water is almost dissolved then add butter aluminum foil to keep the steam in.then five minutes later i stir it with a fork and let it sit for 20 minutes.can i still use this same method in an rice cooker.i usually use an aluminum pot.and i always use four cups water to 21/4 cups rice.thanks in advance!
depends in part on the type of rice you are cookingI make rice everyday in a cooker for a Mexican restaurant and I do 1 part rice to 2 parts water with Goya medium grain riceI start with the rice dry in the cooker and a little oil to toast the rice until the heat switch goes off then I add in the water and salt and restart itThe rice is not sticky at all that way and just barely al denteUse less water for converted rice.
If you are in jail, yes the officials at the prison check your mail incoming and outgoingUnless the post office thinks the letter is suspicious they have a few million pieces running through their stations daily they can't look at everything, however, sending cash isn't a good thing, get a money order at the post office she can cash it there too.
