Are we talking about electric rice cookers? I have a microwave rice
cooker
that works wonderfully. To cook a big pot of brown rice in it: combine 2
cups brown rice, 5-1/3 cups water, some butter and salt in cooker. Cook
in
microwave uncovered for 45 minutes, or until rice is done. Comes out
great.

Subject: [CnD] Uses for the Rice Cooker
Hi,
I have a rice cooker like Sheila's. A few friends of mine also have the
same
one.
Here are some uses
omlet
Browning ground meat,
Cooking noodles,
Stew,
Stir frying vegetables,
boiling potatoes,
and if you have a steamer just put water in the bottom and steam
vegetables.
When my children were small they told me that I used the rice cooker for
everything but rice.
My friend sometimes uses two rice cookers at once dependenting what they
are
making.
I do have a website that has a few recipes for the rice cooker.

Hi Sheila,
I have the same kind of rice cooker because I couldn't find an
accessible
version of the more complicated model -- I had wanted one with a
porridge
setting, but none of those had an accessible way to set for various
outcomes, so I settled for the one I have. Anyway, I, too, am very
interested in other rice cooker recipes.
This is the only one I've found. I've made it a couple of times, and it
turns out well, although it's not as good as the kind one would take a
longer time putting together and cooking. Still, it's a great
week-night
dinner on a busy day.
I know there is at least one rice-cooker cookbook, but I have not found
it
in an accessible format and I'm not so interested that I want to buy or
borrow it and scan it in.

1 med. onion
1 med. bell pepper
1 1/2 c. raw rice

Salt & pepper to taste -, i added 2 tsp of cajun seasoning and 1

Hello Friends,
I am interested in other recipes for the rice cooker
Mine is small, the container holds only 4 cups cooked, and it has only
the on switch which pops up when the rice is cooked.
So far, I have only used it for rice and did not realise it could do
other
thins.
Any useful suggestions please?
Many thanks.
Sheila,
Vancouver, Canada.
