Let’s follow the directions on the package to make our perfect rice every time. 1 cup rice to 2 cups water in the rice cooker. Don’t forget to plug it in and turn it on! We’ve made those mistakes before, haven’t we? When the rice is done, start making the miso soup—directly right in the bowl! It couldn’t be easier!
