Wash the rice: Place in a medium sized bowl. Swish with cold water, then pour off the water. Repeat this at least 4 times to remove the excess starches. 2. Rinse the rice: Place rice in strainer and rinse thoroughly with cold water. Do not press the rice grains against the strainer with your hands as this will break the grains. 3. Drain the rice: Allow rice to sit in strainer for at least 10 minutes and up to 30 minutes to drain excess water. 4. Steam the rice: Place rice and measured water in a rice cooker. Start a timer or make note of the time as rice will be done after exactly 40 minutes. If your rice cooker finishes, do not raise the lid until after 40 total minutes have passed. 5. Make the rice dressing: While the rice cooks, mix the vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small non-metal cup or bowl. Set aside. After the rice is cooked, place it into a large plastic or wooden bowl. With a wet wooden or plastic spoon (like the ones that often come with rice cookers), gently toss the rice with the vinegar dressing mixture. Toss well ensuring that each grain is dressed. 6. Cool the rice: Cover the rice with a damp, lint-free kitchen towel and allow it to cool to room temperature before using.
