Hilltopmom Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 I'm late to the rice cooker game (I'll be even later to insta pot, lol). What are your favorite rice recipes to make in it, other than just plain white, brown, jasmine, etc? And.. Go! Thanks:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wathe Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Our Zojirushi makes fantastic steel cut oats on the porridge setting. I set it up the night before and use the time - perfect oats are waiting for me i the morning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seasider Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 I use it for rice, rice mixes, quinoa, couscous, and since mine doubles as a steamer, steamed vegetables and eggs (in lieu of boiling them). You may go straight to the instapot, but I like separate tools because if I'm making a meat based entree in the pressure cooker, I still use the rice cooker for side dishes. Not every meal is a one-pot thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frances Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Our Zojirushi makes fantastic steel cut oats on the porridge setting. I set it up the night before and use the time - perfect oats are waiting for me i the morning. My college son does this almost everyday during the school year. He adds a banana and some reduced sugar dried cranberries before cooking and chopped walnuts and slivered almonds after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KungFuPanda Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 I've done grits in mine. I also like to put rice in the bottom, veggies on top, and a flank steak on the grill. When I do rice for burritos (usually cilantro-garlic-lime) I warm the tortillas on the top. If I need lunch and I just have little bits of meat and beans or veggies, I toss it all in with some rice and salsa, and serve in tortillas (warned on top) with cheese. It easily turns leftovers-for-one into lunch for 4. I've done steel cut oats in it. Chili too. I travel with it more than my crockpot because the lid is more secure.
