1, in general, the amount of water according to the amount of rice to determine. Water and rice ratio of 1:1 is more appropriate, that is, a bowl of rice and a bowl of water so, if two bowls of rice, then put two bowls of water. Take the bowl that prints the rice to print the water.
2, you can also use another method to determine the amount of water, no matter how much rice, anyway, as long as the water than rice slightly out of 1.5cm ~ 2cm (1.5 ~ 2cm) or so, that is, about a finger or so, with the eyes probably look at it. This is entirely based on experience, and everyone's experience is different.
3, due to the origin of the rice and the different tastes of each person (different regions, countries, brands), the amount of water is slightly different. Generally speaking, at the beginning the first time may fail. Don't be discouraged, take your time and try again. Or consult an experienced person.
4, if the steamed rice is too dry, you can add a small amount of water and continue to simmer for a while. Or too thin, you can just smother it for another half hour before eating. Or eat first, learn from experience, next time you steam can reduce or increase the amount of water, slowly you will be very experienced!
