Rice cookers buyers guide
Australians? love of Asian cuisine and the desire for convenience in the kitchen has elevated the rice cooker to the status of one of our favourite kitchen gadgets in recent years.
Fast becoming an essential for rice-loving household, often their role is simply to make cooking rice foolproof, but increasingly they are being used to cook a family meal while everyone is sleeping or at work. Rice cookers generally don?t cook rice any faster than conventional methods, but they don?t require any attention and won?t burn the rice even if you forget about it. They can also be very handy to free up a stove burner, providing you have adequate bench space.
You can pick up a rice cooker for as little as $25. But if you are looking for sophisticated models with timers or those that not only cook rice but double as a slow cooker or even make soup, expect to pay more. The top-of-the line ?fuzzy logic? models represent another great leap, complete with programmable settings that promise to cook rice of any variety to perfection, or porridge and slow cooked meals and can cost $200-$300.
