I recommend using a rice cooker, but it’s also possible to get good results with a regular pot and appropriate heat/fluid levels.
I don’t rinse my rice for the rice cooker and it comes out perfectly fluffy and pleasant each time. I do however stir it a little, such that the grains don’t stick together after having poured in the water.
That has not been my experience. Also I don’t have a rice cooker. If I don’t rinse it, it becomes a big gooey mess.
