Oh my partner's been trying to convince me to accept one because I make so much stovetop rice, but don't want a digital rice cooker with plastic and circuits and all that.
How does it do?
If you make a lot of rice then spring for a zojirushi neuro fuzzy. Expensive, yes, gamechanger, yes. Buy once, cry once.
That company makes the best damn coffee maker ever
Get a good pressure rice cooker. These are meant to let you leave the rice warm inside for about up to a week. Game changer and always have rice on hand.
Not sure any food can safely be kept warm that long, they keep your rice warm and edible for quite awhile but even 12-24hrs is pushing it.
It depends on the brand. Western rice cookers have a keep warm feature that I wouldn't trust.
Zorushi and Cuckoo that keep the rice under pressure at around 140F will keep for 2-3 days. https://kitchencuddle.com/rice-cookers-that-keep-rice-warm-for-days/
Yeah, a week is really pushing it, I think I just remembered wrong.
If it keeps rice above the "danger zone", dont see why not, but that's hot, not warm. And a week is pushing it.
It's great! It only makes 4-6 servings of rice at a time but I prefer that because it means there's less leftovers
