The Rice Cooker Has Its Advantages

Rice has become an important part of the American dinner menu since there is now more emphasis on nutrition and eating healthy. It has been a staple in many cultures for centuries, and included a variety of types. For years, our only choice for rice in this country has been either the short grain or the long grain white variety. Our choices now are Jasmine, Basmati, brown and the all standard white rice to name a few. There is also the wild rice which, incidentally, is not really rice but a grass.

There have been many changes in the selection of rice as well as the way we cook it. At one time, and some people still do, put the rice into a pot of water and place it on the top of the stove. This method of cooking rice makes us stand at the stove to watch the rice cook, in order to keep it from boiling over. This method is being quickly replaced by the electric rice cooker. Just as the pot we watched, you place the water and the rice into the cooker, click the button, and in twenty minutes you have the fluffiest unburned rice you can be proud to serve your family. This is perhaps the main advantage of owning and using a rice cooker. No more messy clean ups.

Rice

Many rice cookers can do more than just cook rice. Some of the features in some of the cookers are the ability to steam vegetables or fish, and to slow cook other foods which is definitely an advantage over heating up the traditional oven or stove top.

Another advantage of the rice cooker is that you do not have to serve the rice immediately when it is ready. Many of the rice cookers have a feature that will keep the rice warm until such time as you are ready to serve it to your family. In fact, many of the rice cookers will keep your rice fresh for up to two days. No, it will not keep it warm for that long a time, but it will keep it as fresh as when it was first cooked. All you have to do is warm it up.

There is no longer a need to spend many long laborious hours in your kitchen in order to put a nutritious and healthy meal on the table for your family to enjoy. You can make miracles with three small appliances in your kitchen: the microwave, the slow cooker and the rice cooker. With these three small appliances, you can serve a healthy gourmet meal and enjoy it with your family feeling less stressed.
