1:1 in a pot, bring to a rolling boil, put the lid on and turn down to lowest simmer, leave for 10 mins., don't lift the lid until the end.

even the cheapest coating is fine as long as you don't use it for decades daily (unlikely, it will break first because it was cheap) or damage the coating with metal objects, expensive ones just last longer. In the end price decides how many features you get and if you pay up front or over time. You can use a cheap one and once it breaks or is damaged you just throw it out and get a new one - or get the expensive one and use it for a long time with more features. Both will cost roughly the same over say 10 years unless you buy the shit thats branded or for some other insane reason is expensive.

My wife just boils it on the hob and let's it absorb the water.

I like to use a donabe because it's the only really consistent way to get the bottom layer toasted but not stuck to the pot while cooking the rest of the rice perfectly.

Because it off gasses and seeps cancer into anything you cook on them.
>>20040763
The ratio of water/rice depends on the rice you're cooking; how well the stove you're using comes to temperature and how well it stays at low temperature, how good the seal is on your pot and what elevation you're cooking at.

Teflon only does this in excess of 500F/260C, significantly higher than anything you'll reach in a typical home oven
Given rice is full of water when you cook it, there is zero danger

See? Exactly what I said in >>20042617
Makes people here upset.
I parcook the rice, drain, rinse it off excess starch, shake it if excess liquid then put it back into the pot over high heat, lidded. Once the pot lid is too hot to keep your hand on it comfortably, you off the heat and let the rice finish in the heat of it's own steam as you clean/tidy the kitchen and lay the table for dinner.
This makes white people uncomfortable.
