I love jasmine rice, it is so light and delicate - a perfect accompaniment to any saucy dish, especially Indian and Asian food. It can be a bit tricky to get it right, if not cooked correctly it can be very dry, or very sticky. This is a method I've come up with and it works perfectly for me every time. Check it out.

Made this tonight and it turned out perfectly!!
Made the Jasmine rice the other day and followed the directions to the “t”. My rice came out perfect; will make this rice again! 😊
A rice cooker is awesome for Jasmine rice, been using and cooking my rice like this for yrs
If I cooked 4 cups of rice how much water would I use?
I cooked jasmine rice last night and while it smelled delicious, I was surprised that it was overcooked and mushy. Looking at the directions above, I see that it is less than 1:2 rice/water, so I will use less water next time, but I am surprised at the 25 minute cooking time indicated, because I cooked mine for 17 minutes and it was obviously overcooked. I will stick to 17 minutes with reduced water and see what happens.
This works best for me: boil rice in plenty of water in uncovered pot for 7 minutes, pour out all water except what clings to the mass of rice, return to low heat and cover for 7 minutes,
remove heat let rest still covered for a few minutes, perfect.
TY for the tip. I Love jasmine, too. I will try the boil water first method.
of course, it really works every time. : )
