In what universe does it take hours of management to cook rice?

>meanwhile i cook perfect rice in my pot every single time

i really feel like rice cookers are a cooklet cope. i believe i can cook better rice than any rice cooker possibly could. and my rice turns out perfect 10/10 times unless i get drunk and forget it.

>>17499499
You mean 20 minutes, right?

>>17499642
it doesn't burn the bottom rice, it's just the starch. clean your rice better or stir once during cooking. or don't because it's nor burnt and doesn't taste bad

>why use literally the perfect tool for the job when i have hot table and water bucket
gee i dont know anon, i guess because im not a fucking caveman

$20 rice cooker is useful if you eat it a lot, $200 crap is for rich retards whos personality is flexing, fuck with your useless zoji bullshit

Can a rice cooker do pilaf, Pella or risotto? Why would I buy a unitasker for the most boring ingredient in existence?

I’m getting lost in this metaphor. Should I go to someone else’s house to cook rice?

>>17499457
>they own a pot instead of a $2.50 microwave bowl
oh no, imagine being suckered in by big pot when you could just put a cup of rice per two cups of water into a microwave bowl and put it on high for 10 minutes and get acceptable rice

>>17499865
no you retard, you cook using pot in someone else's house

>>17499608
Nice reddit Job, we did it.

See this is where you fucked up.

>>17499924
What are you a fag? Good food is an anchor baby soyboy coastal hoax to make me feel uncultured. We don't take kindly to your uppity ways around here, tread carefully.

>>17499931
Why would I waste the limited amount of calories I’m allotted to consume on my lifetime on food that I don’t even enjoy?

I may have made the mistake of coming to this website, but I’m still not ready to admit I exist just to make myself miserable, yet.

>>17499924
it's rice. there's no difference between acceptable and good.

You're deluded and while be rice less when the power fails

I never miss an opportunity to troll rice cooker fags.
I've never gone so far as to post bait though.

>>17499457
70 euros and doubles as a steamer, it has some other functions but I use it at least 4 times a week
i probably overpaid, but it saves me the space on my small stovetop and will probably last a long time

>makes rice perfectly with the correct settings
>filters retards, poorfags, and long grain mongrels
yeah, I'm thinking based

>>17500241
I'm not going to go in the backyard and build a fire to cook rice over if the power goes out

>>17500341
>he doesn’t cook with gas

>>17500327
what's the difference between these rice cookers and the ones like in OP?

>>17500398
thats pretty obvious just looking at it. that one has timer options and some kind of adjustment for rice type I'm guessing, while the very basic one in op is one that you turn on and it switches to keep warm when it's done

>>17499699
> buy japanese $200 rice cooker that was created to make japanese rice

I hate white people, i really do.

>>17500448
Don’t forget it probably originally only costs 300 yen.

>>17499457
I got mine for $20 and it came with a mini food processor as a gift. did you get rip off or something? someone tried to sell you a japanese rice cooker folded over a thousand times made by shinto monks or something?

>>17499457
>$200
Rice cookers are so cheap fucking Chinese people don't mimd the expense, which says a lot. They aren't $200? They often come with settings for different rice types as well as doubling up as a slow cooker.

You're a brainlet.

>>17500448
Some Japanese rice cookers have a setting to cook long grain rice
Unfortunately, it is only sold in Japan.

>clean your rice
This is unironically useless if you're not living in a shithole. Most of Asia used to until recently or still is so the custom of washing rice stayed but white people doing it is embarrassing.

>>17500629
are you're denying that there's some starchy rice dust from grains that have been rubbing against each other in a package?

>>17499457
Yep I do. I cooked rice in a pot for 10 years before buying a rice cooker. Never going back. It just works and gives me an extra burner

>>17500629
Most rice comes from the same 3 countries...

>>17500669
Nope, I just say it doesn't do shit, you can remove the scary white water if you want but it's useless.
>>17500687
I live in Europe and my rice is grown in Europe.

>>17500720
what breeds do you normally buy in Europe? Ive had difficulty finding any European grown japanese rice.

>>17500724
I usually buy mine from breeders, but you can do just as well with rescue rice as long as you train it right while it's young.

>>17500720
stop with that fucking bullshit. I never said it's scary white water, in fact I said not to because it's not a problem. if you don't want a litte crisp on the bottom it will however help to wash it more thoroughly, I don't know why you deny that

We wash our rice because we want it fluffy instead of being a sticky, starchy, unappetizing soup.

Amerilards LOVE buying a single appliance that only does one fucking job and just takes up cupboard space.

No one fucking needs a home panini press, stop buying one-use shite because Big Kitchen told you to.

OP is trolling but come on you have to be legitimately poor and/or retarded to think that way.

>>17500720

This board would be so much better if they just range banned white countries

Example given is obviously both. I can't imagine being so brainless that I also couldn't imagine someone getting value out of the 2nd most commonly used cooking appliance next to a fucking toaster.

>>17500798
>he said in English
holy shit the stupid is thick today.

I only have a hot plate with basically no temperature control and have figured out the right technique to make tasty fluffy rice on it. If you have an actual stove, making rice should be piss-easy.

i always cook it perfectly in a pan, mainly because i'm not a useless fucking faggot

The key to impressing black people with your cooking is to make a normal dish but triple the amount of salt, garlic powder, and onion powder in it.

>>17500864
If you started charging rent to the all the black people living inside your head, how much do you think you'd be pulling in a month?

And don't forget that if you wash the starch off of your rescued grains then they won't form healthy bonds. Psychologists call this "reactive attachment disorder".

>>17499457
I have a $20 one and it works great. I never want to make rice in a pot ever again.

>>17500241
its not that i dont know how to cook rice without a rice cooker, i just don't want to. do you think i'll forget how if i don't keep practicing? you may need to but i think i've got it. by your logic unless you cook all your meals over a fire then you too will be without food when there's no power for your stove

did this to someone I knew in gradeschool
havent seen or spoken in years
show up one day out of blue to his house
small catchup talk say I was just in area wanted to see if still living here etc
ask if I could use the bathroom
yeah sure man
i took a good 20 minute shit
then basically said so long and left
I havent spoken to him since
sorry scott, i had to shit real bad

Mine cost 30 bucks and it's perfect when entertaining. Set it up, do your mainline cooking, have piping hot rice at the ready once the stove work is done.
I like doing rice on the stovetop when it's just me and I'm eating leftovers/some premade stuff with it.

The real advantage of the rice cooker is not the fact it cooks the rice to you, it's that it keeps the rice *hot* for you.

>>17500448
no racism on this board dicklet

>>17499715
20 minutes to cook but you only have to put in 2 extra minutes of effort relative to using a rice cooker

>not just using instant rice
Bruh, do you even lazy?

>>17500761
Rice cookers are fucking huge in Asia you tard.

>>17501690
no it isn't, thats the rabbi in your skull brainwashing you.
life is about finding happiness and inner peace, not slaving away for a paycheck. nobody that thinks "time is money" is having a happy and fulfilling life.

rice-bros, which one 100-200 do i buy? just want one for my basmati, jasmine rice, sushi and oatmeal porridge settings is a plus too. keep in mind i'll have to pay higher shipping and some import fees too (sweden) so slightly cheaper unit is preferred (still the 130 bux one is over 300 bux here in EU cus fucking jews

NS-TSC18 if you are cooking for a family or have parties. Has all the bells and whistles plus it can make enough rice to feed a small village in Africa.

>>17505805
guess i'll check out the NS-TSC10 as that'll be more than enough for my needs plus the bigger one is too expensive plus it's another 90 bux shipping.

thanks.

>>17504570
If you are going to buy such an old style rice cooker, I think a cheap Yum Asia product would be fine.
I would import a rice cooker from Japan with a voltage transformer and about $400.

I can offer one piece of advice.
Rice cookers taste better when cooked at less than half the indicated capacity.
2 cups for 5 cups, 4 cups for 10 cups

T. Japanese

>>17505924
oh yeah i forgot about those, but i still dont need that much rice cooked at once.
i can get the Sakura 8cup for about $150 (almost 50 cheaper than importing the zojirushi 5cup) so i'll probably get one of those instead. thanks

>>17499460

simply epic, gonna share on reddit

>>17505951
Now it depends on whether it comes with return/exchange coverage or not.

>>17505963
If that pressure cooker is variable pressure, it might be a good idea.
But that would require trying several times to find the right pressure for cooking rice.

>>17505924
$400 and additional equipment to cook FUCKING RICE lol fucking unreal some of the shit that gets written on here. next get yourself a large hadron colllider, I hear they make perfect donuts

>>17505993
it's localized amazon and we have extremely based consumer protection laws so that's not a concern.

>>17506014
I just rechecked the shipping costs to Europe and it looks like I'm going to need $500.
It's a staple food, so I'm willing to spend that much.
I will use it for at least five years.
Rice cooker $200 (from Zojirushi, Tiger, Panasonic, Hitachi, Iris)
Voltage transformer $150
Shipping is $80-$150 by sea.

>large hadron colllider
I do not know what this is to me.

>>17506017
My personal opinion.
Japanese products can be used for about 10 years if there is no problem for one year.
Chinese products are not so easy to turn on and work first of all lol
I think it's better if it works for 5 years or so.

>>17503290
wow homie you are soft as fuck that 3 words trigger you that hard

>wash rice
>add to pot
>bring to simmer
>set to low, cover for 12-14 minutes

It's just as easy as a rice cooker without having to keep a stupid device on your counter. I do not see the point

>>17499457
Mine was on sale for like 15€
So anons got any ricecooker recipes? What have you made so far?

I hate asians

>>17506284
I hate you too fag

>>17506261
not a recipie but when I was povertylivin I would pour a can of cream of whatever soup into the rice cooker when it was done and then fry and add whatever meat I had on hand and leave it on warm for a bit. The problem with cooking anything in a rice cooker is it only stops when all the water is boiled off. It's nice to have if you eat rice a lot but for actually cooking its kinda shit.

If you eat alot of rice and don't necessarily care much about every single aspect of its quality, its definitely a kitchen staple. Not having to baby a pot of rice and focus on other aspects of food prep/cooking is great.

I cook rice in the oven

>>17499457
>pot
>normal person
nobody normal cooks rice in a pot, only white people do that
every chink (that doesnt live third world or in a jungle) uses a rice cooker all across japan, korea, china, etc

>>17499457
You don't eat rice every day.

>>17508456
I do, I use /fit/, and you can cook a million other things in a rice cooker, I made a cake last night.
Why do you retards think rice cookers can only be used for one thing and are not a multi purpose device.

>>17508591
Why are you replying to me instead of the op?

>>17508249
>Not having to baby a pot of rice and focus on other aspects of food prep/cooking is great
When are you babying the rice apart from the span of like 2 minutes if you're doing the high heat, reduce method? 90% of cooking time is letting it gently boil or steam while you go do something else.
