Rice cookers

Electronic rice cookers are a very specialized aid.

Only those cooking rice in large quantities or very often are bound to need one, however, the temptation of preparing rice as good as the best restaurant at home might prove too much. Be aware a food steamer can do the job very well if you know how to use it - when you have had time to get familiar with the way it works.

Pay attention to the liner, the ease of use, keep warm function, temperature settings, clock and timer.
