Rice Cookers
Rice cookers are a wonderful invention.
As much as I love rice, I rarely made it until I got my rice cooker.
With the rice cooker I can make a perfect light fluffy pot of rice without slaving over a hot stove, and without worrying if I'm going to get some crunchy rice at the bottom of my pot.
With the rice cooker I add one scoop of rice, two scoops of water, and wham...the rice is ready.
Some rice cookers even have timers, so you can set the rice to start cooking right before you get home, or right before you get ready to eat.
And you can also steam vegetables in rice cookers, and make lots of other dishes!

This is the rice cooker I have.
Each time I've used the rice has turned out perfectly, and cleanup is a breeze.
The warm feature helps keep the rice warm if families will be eating at different times.
Although I haven't made anything out of the included recipe book, there are some interesting recipes in there.
