I have cooked brown basmati rice in this three times and it has turned out yummy each time. I need to work on having the rice turn out slightly less sticky. The vegetable steamer works really well. It is really handy, but the veggies don’t need much time in which to cook. I have made several different rice dishes in this cooker. Everything turned out great. (even brown rice) the only issue I’ve had is making a small amount of coconut rice (1 cup) browned a little on the bottom. ( most likely due to the viscosity of coconut milk and not the cooker.
I recently gave this rice cooker as a gift to my bachelor friend and here what he has to say about it.What’s a bachelor with a busy schedule who just switched to a whole food, plant based diet to do? Problem solved with this rice cooker. Easy set-up, measuring scoop and accurate measuring charts for perfect rice means even I can’t screw it up. Plug it in, measure the rice, measure the water, close the lid, press one button and wait for the alarm, it’s that simple. The only information that is not included in the easy to read manual are cooking times for each serving of rice, but each batch takes about 30-40 minutes. You can also use the handy steamer basket for vegetables, a safer alternative to the cancer causing molecular rearranger known as the microwave.
