Just a note, you can cook a full rice cooker full and the rice you do not eat immediately can be broken into portions, wrapped in cling film and frozen. To defrost, just use the microwave, it's how most japanese housewives do it these days to speed up cooking a meal. The rice tastes as good flavour and texture wise.

We keep asqeeze bottles of 2 parts oyster sauce, to i part light soy sauce and a dash of toasted seasame seed oil, dash of white pepper, as our basic rice dressing.We have one with added chilli oil, and various seaons to taste, or/and togarashi seasoning. Rice absorbs any flavour you throw at it not just soy sauce, setup little bowls and play till you find your family secret sauce or google.

@geekanoids 3 месяца назад

Sounds great! You made me feel hungry 🤓👍🏻

@vernonrabbetts 2 года назад

You can also add frozen vegetables to the uncooked rice and a chicken breast (with skin) and replace the water with chicken stock which has had a tiny bit of saffron infused through it. Cook the rice as normal, then remove the chicken and cube it before returning to the rice and stirring a good know of garlic/herb butter through the mix. As an advanced twist, cook with extra stock to porridge, then dice the chicken and stir through 1 eg and one egg yolk extra through the mix after adding the herbs butter.

I do like this type of video, the Geek lifestyle is more than just cameras, computers, tablets, etc., there are many cool geeky gadgets that are used around the house, take for instance my review of the Vivitar Stick on LED Light, sure it is not as exciting as a new smartphone or earphones but it is a cool gadget to have around.

@tazmaniachill 3 года назад

Got exactly the same model a few weeks ago and only just used it yesterday, have to say it’s awesome bit of kit. Did 2 cups just to see how it came, suffice to say it ended going into a nice Nasi Goreng for dinner. I’m no expert but I did learn one thing when I worked in Malaysia is you can’t stir fry freshly cooked rice, I let it cool naturally, rinsed it through with cold water and let it drain thoroughly, put in a clean bowl, cover with cling film and bang it in the fridge for a few hours or overnight. Result is perfectly fluffy rice when you stir fry it 👍. I’m now trying to find the best long grain rice I can find as the bag I picked up was about 45p labelled as “savers rice” from Morrison’s - any advice from rice lovers would be appreciated 👍

@geekanoids 3 года назад

We use Three Elephant Jasmine Rice that we buy in a large sack and then decant into smaller containers. After cooking, let cool, then refrigerate, works well in a stir fry.

The import tariffs are 75% of the already marked up product!! brutal! So, because I want to be rid of the Teflon & we have a massive electric converter that eats space in our apt, I think it is overdue to convert to a 220 electrical appliance. (been 4 years) I am disgusted Zojirushi cares so little about customer health risks. My issue is that I don’t know if the rice will be as good!

@@geekanoids ok... well... I think looking at it again, the instruction manual *outlines* the phases, but doesn't actually show you the working through them. The white short-grain rice took a lot less time to cook than the manual stated (about 17 minutes as opposed to 40 minutes!) and even though I carefully measured the portions of water/rice, it was way too stodgy - more like congee! So I will reduce the water next time, and see how it improves the rice. Right now?

Hi! When Panda is cooking, there is the 'chasing lines' pattern that is displayed to show you that it is cooking. There isn't a cooking stages display on Panda (there is on Sakura, which this video is about), we describe the cooking phases in the manual so users know what the cooking cycle does, but we do not display this in any way during the cooking. We are limited in what we can feature on a rice cooker like Panda at this price level, so we cannot feature a countdown timer or anything like that.

So, less than 1 cup of rice. that's why I precised all this in my last comment. I hope that I am much clear. I ask you if you can make the experiment of cook 0,75 cup of rice (so less than 1 cup of rice) in your sakura and tell me if the quality is the same than when you cook for more than 1 cup of rice (for example, 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 cups of rice). thanks per advance for your quick answer.

Jasmine rice should be slightly sticky. We are not talking Uncle Ben's tasteless rice here....this is 'proper rice' done authentically. If you prefer your rice with looser grains then you can simply add slightly less water before cooking. Alternatively you could use Basmati rice which is less sticky however it often has less taste than jasmine rice too.

We at Yum Asia (home of Zojirushi in the UK and Europe for over 11 years) designed and developed Sakura based on our extensive experience of Zojirushi rice cookers which are the number one selling rice cooker brand in the world. We've done extensive blind tests between Sakura and Zojirushi models as well and not one person could tell the difference between the rice cooked in each. The outside of the Tafu thermal mug is stainless steel, not aluminium, we made sure of that!

@icecreamforever 6 лет назад

@ErraticFaith 6 лет назад

Terrible performance in comparison to Zoji, which is why they are the worlds premier brand and not this copycat trash. To see YumAsia commenters say that there is no discernable difference between theirs and the latest Zojirushi models is quite offensive and a outright lie, since everyone we compared with picked out the YumAsia output in seconds. Try again. Things are 'cheap' for a reason.

I think you’re the offensive one here, as they’re the same brand, just Zojirushi uses YumAsia as the brand name for UK and Europe. Do your research before getting all damn high and mighty, eh?
