Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Zojirushi NS-KCC05 Micom Programmable 3-Cup Rice Cooker & Warmer
Customer Review: Rice never tasted so good!
Summary: 5 Stars
We got the cooker as a Christmas present to ourselves. My wife is an avid cook and insists on making things "the right way." She was definitely against me buying this device because she was intent on making rice in a more traditional way - on the stove top. After taste-testing rice made in this cooker by an Indian friend of mine (who happens to be an engineer) I was convinced the rice cooker would make better rice than my wife ever could - sorry honey.
Boy was I right. Not only does the rice come out perfect - PERFECT - every time, but it is also incredibly easy to use. Every piece of rice is cooked deliciously AND there is never any starch scum left at the bottom (making it easy to clean). It is also very compact and ergonomically designed. Our kitchen lacks cabinet space, but we easily found a nook to slide it into. Also, don't throw away the paddle or the measuring cup that comes with it - they are essential to fully enjoying the fruits of the machine.
I live in the American South and I love me some southern food. This weekend I decided to see if this Japanese rice cooker could dish up some good ole' country grits. In a word, they were freakin' awesome! I couldn't believe how tender and creamy the grits came out.
This machine is expensive, yes, but it's totally worth the cash. Just ask my wife.
Description of Zojirushi NS-KCC05 Micom Programmable 3-Cup Rice Cooker & Warmer
Zojirushi Micom 3 Cup Rice Cooker"Micom" means this sleek rice cooker is computer-controlled and ultra high-tech, from its spherical, nonstick pan to its "surround heating" system to its LCD clock and timer. (Program the cooker in the morning and have hot rice available immediately after work.) It not only cooks up to 3 cups of dry rice, but offers a choice of white/brown, mixed, sweet, and porridge settings. A quick-cooking option cuts time by 10 minutes. Rice is automatically kept at warm for hours, and a reheat feature brings it back to serving temperature. Instructions and a cooking chart explain everything. At 10-3/4 by 8-1/2 by 8 inches, it's remarkably compact and also lightweight. Transport it by its handle. Cord retracts for storage. --Fred Brack
