What is a Rice Cooker?

As the name states, a rice cooker helps you cook rice. This kitchen appliance cooks rice using electricity rather than gas stoves, pressure cookers, etc. It automates the process of cooking rice by controlling the heat and timing, ensuring that the rice is cooked evenly and to perfection.

Typically, an electric rice cooker consists of an outer casing, an inner cooking pot, a heating element and a thermostat. The inner pot is filled with rice and water according to the desired recipe or rice-to-water ratio. Once the cooker is turned on, the heating element boils the water, and the thermostat regulates the temperature to prevent the rice from burning or overcooking.

Many electric cookers also have additional features such as timers, keep-warm functions and settings for different types of rice. This versatility makes rice cookers a convenient and reliable appliance for preparing various rice dishes with minimal effort and supervision.
