Anyone Bento?

Staci, well, what works and what doesn't work is pretty subjective In a sushi bar, regular jasmine rice wouldn't work, but I think it's fine if you're just doing it at home. Heck, I even specifically buy salted/seasoned nori to eat with regular jasmine rice.

Rice cookers can vary, too, so who knows! I just eyeball it, but it becomes second nature when you've been doing it since you were a toddler

I was curious about the Jasmine rice myself. A lot of the rice packages didn't indicate if it was short grain or not. None of them said "sushi rice" on the packaging. Thankfully the owners of the place were helpful and pointed me to the Calrose rice.

Let me know how the Jasmine rice tastes. I might have to pick up a bag just to try it.
