Are Japanese rice cookers worth the $$$?

[Your Welcome]

For health reasons you probably shouldn't be keeping food warm throughout the whole day. should probably refrigerate after 2 hours

i don’t have an expensive one but I’ve used it religiously for the last 8 years or so. Rice comes out perfectly, especially if you get that calrose brand

Use an instant pot

Rice is easy af to cook in a pot. Don't need one.

So no matter the type of rice you put in, it recognizes it and adjust accordingly? Ex: I like basmati rice but wife likes some other weird barley shyt.

To be clear,

It's true that you don't NEED a rice cooker. But I find it helpful for meal prep (although I don't eat as much rice now).

And if I am making certain dishes, I make rice the old way so I can get the crunchy rice at the bottom.

I got a Tiger rice cooker, paid like 80ish bucks for it. Perfect rice, every single time(if you can read/follow instructions).

Worth every penny.

I'm not home now but I know there's a white rice setting, a brown rice setting, and theres kind of a sushi rice setting I think.

Pretty sure there's a setting for like ....parboiled rice?
I have a big sack of Jasmine rice at home so that's what I use. I haven't tried basmati.

Most have different settings for the types of rice/grains/oats.
The heater uses fuzzy logic to adjust the time and temperature, so you should get the perfect rice and then have it chillax for the rest of the day if you're gonna come back to it.

I was looking at this one real hard


But decided against it because I just don't eat enough rice to justify the cost.

Buy jasmine rice , it's really hard to fukk it up on the stove.

I have a Zojirushi and it's absolutely worth the price. Had it for like 10 years now, works just as good. IF you eat rice even once a week its worth it. They got measuring lines inside the pot so even if you never cooked rice before it is easy. You can kind of use it like an instapot, you can cook porridges, oatmeal, stews, but rice is really what it's made for.

I know a lot of people swear by these, and I had to talk my old lady out of getting one because of the price…. She probably gonna end up getting it anyway.

I aint never seen one of those outside of a restaurant. And even then the restaurant wasn't using it, it was just on the shelf in the back. its probably good but unless ur cooking hella rice just get the regular
