Producing restaurant-quality rice at home is practically foolproof with this 10-cup, micro-computerized cooker. Simply fill the inner pot using the special measuring marks, select the food type, press the cook key, and listen for the timer. Multi-menu selections using fuzzy-logic technology control the temperature for efficient cooking of a variety of foods, including white rice, rinse-free rice, mixed rice, sprouted brown rice, sweet rice, quick rice, brown rice, porridge, and soup, as well as slow cooked or steamed foods. Its slow-cook settings are great for cooking delicious soups and stews for up to eight hours.
For added convenience, the cooker offers a "keep warm" function that maintains a serving temperature after cooking is complete, while its reheat function allows cooked rice to be re-heated in about five minutes and served as freshly cooked. An LCD clock and a handy 24-hour preset timer allows for cooking to be completed at a desired time. The cooker's titanium-coated, extra-thick, 2-1/2 mm non-stick inner pot with a round bottom provides even heat distribution and helps prevent rice from sticking, which makes for easy clean-up. Accessories include a steaming tray for vegetables, a measuring cup, and a non-stick spatula, as well as a multi-language instructional manual with recipes in English, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. The compact rice cooker's contemporary exterior with stainless steel accents is an attractive addition to any kitchen, while the unit's retractable cord saves on counter space. The unit measures 10-3/4 by 11 by 13-1/2 inches.
