Tupperware 2.25c MICROWAVE Rice Quick COOKER STEAMER NEW

I bought this because I was just tired of having to use the stovetop and dirty a pot to make rice. It's perfect for one or two people, and produces about 1 1/2 cups of rice. The max capacity is 1/2 cup rice and 1 cup water.

I just used it for the first time and expected some trial and error. The insert says to cook jasmine rice for 8 minutes if your microwave is 900 watts. Mine is 1100 watts, so keep this in mind.

The insert specifically says to use 1 cup of water with 1/2 cup rice, but my Jasmine rice package says it's 3/4 cup water to 1/2 cup rice. I followed the tupperware instructions instead of the rice package.

1/2 jasmine rice, 1 cup cold water. Microwaved for 7 min in an effort to account for a higher wattage microwave. After 7 min, the water was gone, but the rice was a little too chewy. I added about 1/4 cup cold water, and another minute in the microwave, then let it rest for about 5 minutes. It came out perfect.

So, the lesson was that the rice takes more water in the microwave. Mine took 1 1/4 cup cold water to 1/2 cup rice for 8 minutes. Pretty cool to get it perfect on the first try!

I'm going to enjoy using this!

Received today -way ahead of schedule. Looks great and I am anxious to try it out . . . will need to go and purchase rice first!
