Where do you get sticky rice? Or is it just normal rice cooked a certain way?
sticky rice or japonica rices are more glutonious than Indica rices so the grains will stick to each other. This sticky white rice is the rice in basically all traditional Japanese foods.
To make it find sticky rice in your super market (the only brand I can think of off the top of my head is Calrose are many others). Instant rice will kill you. Okay it won't be it is just... not good for recipes (or to eat, haha). Remember rice will fill with water and make a lot! One cup of dry rice will make three cups of cooked rice!

So measure the amount of dry rice you want for the amount for cooked rice into a sauce pan. Add two cups water for every one cup of dry rice (some people use 1:1 or 1:25 cups per 1 of rice. I often use the "finger method" (fill the pot with water until it reaches your first joint
sweatdrop ). Bring the rice to a boil, stirring as you go. When the rice boils cover it with the pot's lid and turn the heat to low. Cook for 20 minutes. Once your timer goes off turn off the heat and wait at least 10 minutes more! This lets the rice steam and if you don't let it sit I find the rice is crunchy and blah. Then fluff the rice with a fork and you're good to go.
Maa, at my apartment we have cruse-ed electric burners and I can never get my rice to come out right. So I bought a cheap rice cooker/steamer.
