Zojirushi and Rice

  • Water Soaking

    Water needs to be soaked into the rice grain before steaming. And the water to grain ratio can be tricky. You had to be an expert to get perfectly cooked rice.

  • Heat adjustments

  • Steam before serving

    Once the rice is fully cooked, the process wasn’t done yet. Now you had to slowly steam it so that the grains could absorb the moisture completely. You couldn’t take your eyes off it yet!

Rice Cooker Safety

  • Inner Lid

    Re-attaching the inner lid is necessary to operating the rice cooker. Most cookers have mechanisms that prevent closing the outer lid if the inner lid is not set properly.

  • Inner Pan

    Pressing the START button without the inner pan installed will cause overheating. With our IH cookers, there is a No Pan detection warning to prevent this.

  • Available Sizes & Styles

    One cup of short grain white rice equals about 12 ounces cooked rice. Models range from 3 to 10 cups, so choose according to the size of your family or your meal requirements.
