If you are used to having rice cooked in your home several times a month, your houshold treats rice as more of a staple diet rather than an simple meal. If your houshold really loves the tasty and nutritious staple so much, then why don t you consider getting a rice cooker to take your rice experience to the next level?
The thing about rice is, you rarely get the same rice twice, personally speaking, when I go look the markets for rice, I find completely new types and kinds of rices, all different that what I faced on my previous attempt. That may not seem like a problem to you yet, but when I cook them, sometimes they break away, other times they dissolve too much, giving away starch.
If you are a good cooker, then i am sure that you can cook rice manually and eat good quality rice. Unfortunantly not all of us can cook well. On the other hand, if you had an elecetric rice cooker, it would not matter if you were a good cooker or not. The rice cooker would cook the rice for you and would always give you a tasty meal.
Cooking rice in the traditional way can take up to 30 mins. Rice cookers take only a couple of minutes before the rice becomes ready to eat. Also, this is a energy-saving appliance that you can use anytime.
Besides cooking rice, you can use your rice cooker for other things. You can use the basket steamer to steam small foods or steam your baby s bottles or other thing that you want to keep sanitary. Now remember, technology and money are directly related. This means that if you want a rice cooker with many features, you will have to pay more for it.
There are different sizes for rice cookers. If you live alone or with one more person, then a 3 cup model would be ideal for you. For a family with 4 to 6 people, a 5 cup model is probably the best choice. There are also bigger!larger rice cookers (10 cup model, 30 cup model) if you need to cook for more people. You can use it to cook for a big family or for a restaurant.
