Monday, I received the Zojirushi NP-HCC10XH Induction Heating System Rice Cooker. I’d been eyeing them for years; however, I did not purchase them since it seemed a bit”silly” to me to spend money on a rice cooker. Fast forward to now. My life is busier than usual, and I wanted a device to place my grains in and walk away.
Enter the rice cooker. Since I’m a loyal fan of Zojirushi’s products, I knew I’d buy that brand. Zojirushi is a Japanese company that makes top-of-the-line cooking equipment. I have several of their items, and I love them all. We mainly eat brown rice, and so I chose to cook that as my first selection. It wasn’t any old brown rice. I purchased this rice from Hmart, the Korean grocery store that I’ve been frequenting. At that store, they have an entire aisle dedicated to rice. Short, medium, or long-grain? Why yes, they do have that! Multigrain, brown, sweet, black, basmati, mixed. Yes, yes, yes, they have all those too! The challenge for me was deciding which rice to buy?
Although I make great rice in my pressure cooker, and on the rare occasion preparing it in a pot on top of the stove. The rice produced in the Zojirushi rice cooker is miles ahead of any rice that I’ve ever made.
Below, I’ve included two videos about the Zojirushi rice cooker, both were extremely informative videos about this brand.
