TOSHIBARice Cooker Small 3-Cup Uncooked– LCD Display with 8 Cooking Functions: Rice, Oatmeal, Mixed Grains and More, NonStick Inner Pot, Grey

I will join the myriad of other people in saying, this is one of the best kitchen investments I've made. I can't believe I've never thought to buy a rice cooker before -- this makes rice easy, delicious, and perfectly consistent across multiple dinners.It's MUCH better than using the stovetop to whip up some Minute rice. The taste and texture of rice, and the value that this adds to your kitchen, is unbeatable. I have been using it exclusively for Jasmine rice, but I'm about to branch out to other types, I'm particularly interested in doing brown rice and making cake. Yes, it has an option for making cake - not rice cake, sponge cake. Like for a small birthday cake. I'M SO EXCITED.Y'all, I am a 34-year-old married man, and I still get giddy every time we're planning a dinner that a side of rice will complement. I brag about this thing with my coworkers. I take the reigns when cooking rice, so that my wife can focus on the delicious main course.I found this method online and it makes it so easy to do rice the right way:Step 1 - I measure out how much rice I want - I usually do 1.5 cups - and pour it into a mixing bowl (any kind of bowl with extra space will work).Step 2 - I fill the bowl with cold water (not hot, as this may affect cooking), and rub all the grains of rice between my fingertips to remove excess starch. Using my hand as a block, I'll pour the water out, and refill with more water. I repeat this process until newly added water is barely cloudy.Step 3 - Using my hand as a block, I pour the water down the drain. It's okay to have a little bit left in the bowl, you don't have to struggle to get all the water out.Step 4 - Pour the rice into the rice cooker bowl.Step 5 - Measure out and pour water into the rice cooker bowl. For Jasmine rice, I do about a 1:1.3 ratio. For 1 cup of Jasmine, I'd do 1-1/3 cup of water. For 1.5 cups Jasmine, I'd do 2 cups water. You can play around with it, but you typically want to use more water than rice when cooking Jasmine, you just don't want to use more than 1:1.5 rice to water for Jasmine. White rice should be a 1:1 ratio, but check online forStep 6 - Press "Menu" until your rice type is highlighted, then press start. For Jasmine, I use the Mixed Rice setting.One important thing to note about this rice cooker, is that the included cup is not a 1-cup measurement. It is smaller than that. I use an actual measuring cup when pouring my rice, and I always use the same cup to also measure my water. Consistency! It's an art, too though, so feel free to eyeball it once you get comfortable with your new favorite kitchen appliance.

Great rice cooker! I so love this rice cooker...so easy to use!

Cooks rice perfectly. We’d heard that fuzzy logic rice cookers are much better than the basic ones, but the price tag on most of them was a huge deterrent. This one was much cheaper than others but still does a great job. The size is perfect for our small family (easily makes enough for 4 people on the 1-cup setting, and it can make much more). It’s very easy to use and not too big. I was worried when I saw that it could take 45-50 minutes to cook, but it never takes that long—more like 20-25.

The media could not be loaded. my rice comes out perfectly cooking white rice.i have tried several times several ways to use the timers but no matter what i do neither timers counts down.i would like it if some preset cook times could be adjusted more but i bought it to cook rice and it does that so i will use it.

Since I came from Japan, rice is a very important part of my meals—especially Japanese rice, which I use for sushi and traditional dishes. This rice cooker is perfect: it cooks Japanese rice exactly as it should be—soft, fluffy, and with the right moisture level.I use it every day as a student, and it really makes my life easier. It’s compact, fits easily in my dorm room, and has convenient features like the delay timer and keep-warm function. I also steam vegetables and adjust the texture of the rice thanks to the fuzzy logic technology.If you're a student or living alone, and you care about good rice—especially Japanese rice—I definitely recommend it.
