I'm in the market right now for a rice cooker/steamer also. Has anyone ordered from this site? I saw an electric one at Fry's for about $15.

Why don't you edit the title that says what this is about...like, rice-cooker? What if everyone did a similar post? We'd never find anything! thanks

 

[gyfer]

Does anyone know any Nitrous Kit for these ??
Or is there anyway to Supercharged or Turbocharged it ??

BossDogg,
The one I got at Trader Joe's was this one

Cheap Rice Cooker

You can cook like two servings of rice in about 15 min. It's the best...actually I made some rice for dinner with it tonight!

The best way to make the rice good is to cook it in a hot pot over a stove with fire. The the old fashion way and it makes it taste yummy.

 

[mrchan]

well, i went and orded one. just had some burnt rice =P

So! Since you guys seem to be experts on rice, what is the best rice to cook up? This white boy just buys the 3 minute boil in bags. They taste good to me but I need to broaden my horizons. Is there a better brand or type of rice I should look for in the grocery store? Brown or white, etc. Thanks.

i aint indian but ive found that indian basmati rice to be pretty good.

 

[pennywise]

I think the paddle that comes with it has a better use. I like my rice cooked the traditional way.

I like using my pink Zojirushi rice cooker. It's small and has a retractable cord for easy storage. Plus it can cook Brown rice easily, a feat not accomplished by many cookers.

The BEST way to cook rice is to call the local chinese take-out or restaurant.

I use the Black & Decker steamer all the time for rice and veggies. The rice is perfect. I'll never use the stovetop again. (I bought mine at a yard sale for $1.00) but it is worth this price (IMHO)

HS900 steamer/rice cooker

or

more B & D steamers/cookers

 

[emonkey]

Mat-

Go to an asian store and get one of those bags of Jasmine Rice. Thats the stuff that I buy. Check if you can tell the difference between that and your american stuff. A few white friends of mine cant tell the difference (for some reason) so I guess its all up to your pallete.

Cook it up in chicken broth (or just use water and those chicken boullion cubes) to give it some good flavor. The jasmine absorbs it pretty well so it tastes pretty pukka.

AP!

<< MODERATOR: The link above is a REFERRAL >>



no it's not. You think QVC is referring themself?
Originally found it through a yahoo search. I even went through the extra trouble to search the product ID under QVC's orginal website and remove the Yahoo referral tag and this is the thanks I get. Tsk Tsk tsk. Rice goes good with curry!!

 

[MuuMuu]

rofl. I like the post.

However, like other ppl have said, you can pick up a rice cooker for 10 bucks if you look around. I got one recently at KMart for about 13 bucks.

BTW, sticky rice beats nonsticky rice in taste.

My rice burner was hecka expensive.. plus I have to keep putting unleaded in it. BUT, It lives up to the thread title... Fast and Furious!!! A little NOS never hurt anyone.

 

[gtd2000]

Fastest way to cook rice for me in Hong Kong was to go down to the local restaurant and eat there

If my GF cooked anything it was like 3 hours ..and that was just for a sandwich...lol

Actually the microwave rice cooker is supposeldy one of the few Hong Kong inventions

Now that I am in the USA and the Chinese food is so awful (westernised) I rarely eat rice anymore...although I am just back from a pretty decent Thai restaurant in Orlando right now

What about Sam Woo?

 

[DRDEATH]

Haha, Funny post:Q

 

[Term2]

I got myself this fuzzy logic rice cooker. worth the price ? U bet. It cooks the rice ...not too hard or soft (if u add the right amount of water as marked on the cooker itself.

I bought it here since I could not get it locally. I got the National/Panasonic one which costs abt 109 USD. (5 cup model) And I am in no way affiliated to them or get any commission for them. Just want to point to some Anandtech members on where u can get it online.

<< no, u need one of the old school rice cookers with the removable silver pot....u know what im talking about. >>



I thought ALL of them have the pot (besides those pos computer ones)!!!! I feel old...

 

[frizzlefry]

Tried many rice cookers and found that the cheap one that works well is National brand. but if you want the best rice, Zojirushi IMO is the best rice cooker out there on the market.

funny thread BTW.

Supercyrix Sam Woo is westernized.
