Washing rice helps make it more sticky for sushi rice but would give different results depending on the method; how much you washed it and if you let it soak before cooking. Washing and soaking is NOT necessary if you just want quick, easy rice.

But for sushi rice, I rinse rice out in a large bowl at least 8-10 times until the water starts running clear, then let it sit in water for 15 minutes before draining, adding it to the pot, add the water to one knuckle. I don’t use a cooker, just a regular pot with nonstick spray.
