Tim's Notes
Cook rice in the oven for more even heat. This eliminates the need for a rice maker, especially if you have a small living space, and I actually find the oven method preferable. Rinsing the rice is important, but I don't hand wash it umpteen times like some chefs pontificate. The last trick is fluff and let sit a few minutes with a dish towel under the lid to allow steam to dissipate.
