Zojirushi NHS-18 10-cup Rice Cooker Review
Some other marvelous features that provided by this Zojirushi NHS-18 10-cup Rice Cooker and Steamer are the maximum five-hour Keep Warm function, a simple start push switch, a pair of heat resistant handles, a transparent glass lid and a nonstick inner cooking wok. The Keep Warm function will be automatically activated at the completion of cooking process. It also comes with some basic accessories such as a rice-measuring cup, a serving spatula and an instructional cooking chart.
Most of the users conveyed that this Zojirushi NHS-18 10-cup Rice Cooker is a good at producing delicious rice but some tricks need to be learn. For instance, to avoid the bubbling and frothing over the top of the cooker during the cooking process, it is crucial to wash and rinse the rice thoroughly by using a strainer or sieve. Some users even recommended that soaking the brown rice for 30 minutes before cooking can avoid the brown rice from clumping and sticking to the bottom of your inner wok.
In balance, this Zojirushi NHS-18 10-cup Rice Cooker is simple in structure and cheap in price. If budget is your constraint, and you only need a basic rice cooker with simple operations that can produce decent rice, then this rice cooker with steam function will suit you well!
