| Topic | so i just made rice with my 300 dollar rice cooker and fucking shit |
| LookANinja 11/11/19 5:56:01 PM #75: | Alright here's my two cents. People who usually say "Rice is so easy to cook on the stove, why do you need a rice cooker?!" are usually the people who have never used one, and that's okay. Now i can't speak for the Instant pots that's trending now and how well they cook their rice, but my family always used Tiger brand rice cookers, i believe Zojirushi(sp) is comparable. They're usually under $100 depending on the size you purchase. Cooking rice literally becomes just a "plug and forget" sort of thing. You measure/rinse the rice, measure the water and hit the button and forget about it. Oh you forgot that you started it an hour ago? No problem, rice cooker has a "keep warm" setting that keeps the rice perfectly hot without making it all soggy. Keeps for hours. Oh you're done with the rice but don't want to put it away yet? Unplug the rice cooker and leave it overnight. Next day, plug it back in, throw in a tiny bit of water, set it to cook again, and the rice will be nice and hot, and again will stay perfectly cooked. Now i get that it's an extra appliance, but it's a godsend for people who cook rice often. I'm curious to see how the instant pot holds up to these stand alone rice cookers, so at least you could have different uses for it. --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
