More Basic Information Unlike cheaper rice steamer or cooker brands, these units all remain high end, and will cook rice to as close to perfection as one can get from an electric rice cooker. By utilizing even heat cooking, Zojirushi rice cookers make excellent white rice, as well as delicious brown rice, sushi style rice, and other grain types. You can even prepare oatmeal and porridge with most models!
In the Mood for Healthy Rice? A few cookers come with a setting called "GABA". When selected, this new technology allows beta starch in rice to turn into alpha starch. This makes the rice more nutrient-rich, taste better, easy to digest, and have a more well-balanced texture. (we should state that this setting comes on the more expensive units, is only meant for brown rice, and takes a very long time to prepare rice).
Fuzzy Logic is another technology most Zojirushi cookers are equipped with which allows the unit to "think" for itself by constantly monitoring and changing both internal temperature and cooking time. So, let's say you added either too little or too much water...the Zojirushi will adjust; within a certain limit.
Some Pros About a Zojirushi Rice Cooker most units offer different settings for several rice types modern look and stylish design fits many kitchen decors not complicated to use
Cons not the most budget friendly requires a long time to cook rice most do not allow for simultaneous vegetable steaming
Overall, purchasing any Zojirushi rice cooker is a great choice. Compared to other models, and through the years, they still remain one of the best on the market! However, for folks on a tighter budget we also recommend researching Panasonic and Sanyo Fuzzy Logic rice cooker models that offer similar benefits at a lower cost.
