Does anybody know what the best kind of rice is for making teriyaki? Do I need a rice cooker to cook it properly or will it turn out right if I cook it in a regular pan?

I am going to choose the best answer after I've tried your suggestions. Tastiest answer gets best pick.

Answer 1

I use Jasmine rice for all of my rice dishes. You can make it in a rice cooker or on the stovetop. It is light and fluffy and has good flavor. Never use instant :-)

Answer 2

Anything works. Rice A Roni works. They have all kinds of flavors even Terryiaki and you can make it in a stove top pan. If making your own. rice cooker. A pot will do fine. The key to cooking rice is the right amount of water to rice and don't overcook. Burnt rice is not good. There are microwave products out there also.

Answer 3

You will not need any special rice or rice cooker. Use the shortest grain rice(except min. rice) you have in your home, wash it under cool water till it runs completely clear, then follow the instruction on the rice. Fluff with a fork (this means gently agitate the rice releasing the steam(the moisture w/ starch makes sticky rice). Enjoy your teriyaki.
