You're absolutely right about using their measuring cup. Had great results with this cooker at first but i lost their cup and now my rice is always either undercooked or overcooked. Havent found the right ratio yet. Normal rice cooker ratios don't seem to work very well.
I just googled the item & there was a drop down question asking what is the cup size that comes with the rice cooker ; which says 180ml & often the rice measuring cup provided with most rice cookers is 180ml. I hope this is helpful for you 😁
@@Oissir appreciate it. I'll try that because I haven't been able to get the perfect rice like before since losing the cup! I've been using the finger in the water trick where you want the distance between the rice and the surface of the water coming to your finger's first knuckle and it works well but hasn't been perfect.
I'm having one of these cookers delivered today. It's great to know what to expect. Thanks for giving honest useful info. The coffee filter tip is genius!
I have one in my office and one at home, I use them both frequently. One thing people have to remember is 'cup' Use the cup that came with the unit. For plain rice, I use one CUP rice and one CUP water or chicken broth. Do NOT use a standard one CUP measure as the results will be nasty. Great video!
Could be the liquid volume of the butter, lemon and juice of the garlic takes the water up to the 1 cup level, depending on how much you shorted it. That might explain "overcooked" rice in previous attempts 😅
Could be. One of those rice measuring cups is approximately 3/4 cup, or 12 tablespoons, and a half lemon usually contains between 1 and 1.5 tablespoons. But the type and age of the rice, could also affect the precise water ratio needed.
I bought one of these from Amazon recently, it worked fine for about 4 or 5 weeks. My paperwork said it would be fine for heating soup and cooking rice. I put a can of regular tomato soup in, set it to cook and walked away. I came back to my desk about 20 minutes later and the temperature sensor or timer (I don't know what exactly tells it when to stop cooking) had failed and I had burnt tomato soup boiled out and all over my desk at work. Thankfully it just splattered on the wall, soaked over my desk and ruined a mousepad. But be warned these things are not completely safe, I even contacted the seller and then the manufacturer and never heard a word from either.
Where's the pork chops? You should have put it on top of the rice and took a mouthful with the rice and chops together. It would have really look yummy. btw, nice vid. Tnx!
I hate cooking rice because I have to watch it or it boils over. I’m getting ready to try my Dash mini rice cooker. Mine didn’t come with a steam hole.LOL. Yes it did.
I love this rice cooker too. It sounds like your biting the metal spoon so hard at the end. Your teeth don't hurt from chumping down on metal? I would think it would chip your teeth.
