Rice is one of those foods that you almost never get right… too much water, not enough water, cooked too long, not cooked long enough. Bad rice can RUIN an entire meal! And, I’ve ruined plenty of meals due to bad rice. Pretty sad, right? For some reason my rice always comes out gooey and sticky, no matter how much water I use. Ugh!!
We received a Aroma Rice Cooker in exchange for this review.
I was asked to review the Aroma 12 Cup Rice Cooker, Food Steamer, and Slow Cooker (all in one). And, I absolutely LOVE it! You can cook from 4-12 cups of rice inside of this machine, and always have great, perfectly cooked rice ALL the time! It’s a total meal saver! If you’re planning on having something with your rice, you can steam your meats and veggies right above your rice, and everything will be ready at the same time. How awesome is that? Pretty darn awesome, if you ask this mama.
There are also some great setting for perfectly cooked rice, no matter what kind of rice is on the menu: White Rice, Brown Rice, Sushi Rice, Quick Rice, Steam, Slow Cook, Saute-Then-Simmer, Cake Functions, as well as a Keep Warm setting. This machine is totally awesome and it’s made being in the kitchen a BREEZE!! The slow cook setting can create ALL of your homemade favorites, too. I made a pot roast and it was a HUGE hit! It came out absolutely perfect! The pot roast was SO tender and the flavor was just amazing!!
The saute-then-simmer function provides high heat to get the sauteing done, and then automatically changes to simmer as soon as you add the liquid. Enjoy restaurant quality rice, and delicious home cooked meals that guests will never guess were just thrown into a rice cooker! Get everything done that you can never find time for, plus have a healthy, tasty meal with only half the work!
Included with the Aroma 12 Cup Rice Cooker is: Steam Tray, Rice Measuring Cup, and Serving Spatula. (Seen above!)
