@@CoralHoyt how fast will the white rice cook on this? mainly flash rice?

[@mthomas653]

I got my cooker about a month ago but just opened the box this morning. I immediately had questions and turned to KZbin. Your video was the first one up. You answered all my questions. Great video. Thank you.

[@debraalvarado2913]

It's extremely easy to use, I use it 2 or 3 times a week. I hand wash my inner pot, it takes minutes to do. Empty the condensation catcher every time. I mostly make Jasmine or basmati, I use low sodium chicken broth and lime zest or lemon zest. It's the best appliance I own. Great price great product. I wholeheartedly agree with this video!

[@jeolmo]

Been using this awesome rice cooker for a year. I lost the measuring cup but thanks to you, I know it's 3/4 cup. To ensure a non-stick coating, I add a dab of something like olive oil, ghee butter (or regular), and this not only prevents any sticking but adds a little texture and moisture. Happy Cooking!

[@lour58]

How long does 2 cup of rice take to cook?

[@jeolmo]

@@lour58 I'd say less than 20-25 minutes. I like to add things like chicken breast chunks, mixed veggies, which add a few more minutes. If you are into rice and beans (like I am) you can buy the Goya Rice & Red Beans, Seasoned Rice Mix, add a little olive oil and necessary water...and voila! You're a Latin chef :-). They have different Goya Rice - check them out. As for this cooker, GET IT!

[@DONSATANAS]

In addition to a little oil, a couple pieces of long onions gives I it a nice flavor

[@nancycathey1401]

wow! I’m glad you took out the time to explain and why… so much simpler. Thank you!

[@ron78]

Great idea. Thanks 👍🏻

[@michellesonnen832]

Wow had mine for 11 years to heat gel pads. Now in 2024, just cooked some rice for the puppy, had no idea you could remove that section of the lid. Saved us from getting sick in the future as left out rice breeds a bacterium. Not sure where the booklet is, that was 11 years and a major move ago. The rice came out perfectly. Liked it so well, I'm buying the newest model for myself. THANK YOU.

[@ruggiec.ruggleby6511]

I dusted off my Aroma rice cooker intending to give it away but I changed my mind and decided to start using it again. There were some things about it that I never knew. This demo was extremely helpful!!

[@pattiabb3259]

I bought this 6 months ago and although I had no problem cooking rice on the stove, this rice cooker is great. Just cooks on its own and you don't have to watch it like on the stove. I misplaced the measuring cup forvthe cooker but just use a 1 to 1 ratio for water and rice and it comes out perfect every time.

[@micki1973]

Perfect! When I seen like 10+ min video I almost left but remembered you can now scan over to see where the content your looking for is...and it worked, question answered...I was wondering about the little thing in the center going around and around. Thank you so much! I really like mine

[@bluebonnetjasmine969]

Yes it is, I've cooked white rice, BBQ country style ribs. BBQ chicken legs, sweet potatoes, broccoli and now I'm steaming Brussel sprouts. So it's cooked everything perfect. And no standing over it like cooking on stove top. I love my Aroma 8 cup Rice Cooker.

[@curateitgorl]

I bought 1 for only $10 at a goodwill, it is so close Its my favorite go to place

[@runawayreece]

Can you steam veggies while making the rice at the same time? Or do you have to do that separately?

[@pointsonthecurve8098]

I have stared at this Rice Cooker for a year, never using it. So thank you~! I will plug it in today because of you young lady :)

[@iceartist22]

OMG THANK YOU -- I just got this & tried it last night for the first time. LOVED the way it cooked the rice & I steamed some salmon too, perfect!! BUT then I saw the condensation on the gasket at the top & worried how on earth to dry it. Thought I was going to have to return it --- you saved the day showing that the inner lid comes off!! The book doesn't say that, at least that I noticed. Popped it off, dried everything, & now I'm going to keep it & use it all the time!! :)

[@MollyFullofgrace]

Thank you so much! Everything I was hoping to know about my rice cooker 😊. I lost my cup and was confused on the amount of rice to water on water line. You have explained all that was needed including delay timer. Thank you

[@jeremye997]

Thanks for the review. A lot of people say 2 cups of water per 1 of rice but it just kept coming out soggy all the time. Thanks for clarifying the lines on the cooker.

Hi! Your cute as can be! I came to KZbin after buying this rice cooker the one we had was too small but much more clear cut on how to use. I did think I was doing something wrong when the light was circling! I’m happy you cleared that up! I didn’t even realise it had a delay! Great feature! Thank you so much for your review on this product!

[@acecyxyooj6954]

Is there a way to have the "keep warm " keep warm not turn off if you have rice in it? Cause my rice cooker turn the "keep warm" off after a while and the manual doesn't tell you to set anything up.

[@unhiddenhistory]

I have this rice cooker, and I can definitely vouch for its worth! I use mine at least once a week---I love my rice---and it's easy to clean, too.

[@barbaramcquown9907]

I did not know the inside the lid came off also, and junk city is was... You are talking 6 months use... and, the small cup on back I found later... I love mine... We use about 3-4 times a week, for my 24 month aged Basmati Rice... I was ready to throw away today, when I saw what was under the removable lid... But, I found it, cleaned it and you confirmed, that I did not break my rice maker... I love it...

[@CoralHoyt]

Haha yeah, I feel like they should make it more obvious that those things can be removed and cleaned so you don't wait 6 months or more before figuring it out!

I just bought the Aroma 5000 SB and the first thing I noticed was all of the things that came with it. Plus the new appliance smell was strong is it ok to go ahead and cook in it or run it through the dishwasher I don't know if it is sanitized from the factory or not. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.

[@CoralHoyt]

I think I just rinsed mine before I used it. But if it smells really strong, I would probably wash it first.

[@tmangamingx]

@@CoralHoyt My food turned out ok Coral. It just had that " New car smell " Except with New aroma smell.

[@lynetterene]

I just got one yesterday, but I'm sure it will be worth it

[@NDemanuele1]

This is very helpful! I own this identical Rice cooker and been using it regularly. Question: Do you know the process of cooking a stew with rice? I did it yesterday and while I had to add a little extra water to ensure the rice cooked thoroughly. In the end it turned out ok, but could've been better. I thought there was a little too much liquid. The process I used was throwing everything in the pot including the rice. However, I let the rice ( brown rice) soak for about a half hour before rinsing it and putting it in the pot. I'm thinking next time I can start the rice first, then add everything in later. Anyway, interested in getting your input on this. Thanks!

[@colettemcwilliams1325]

I think the rice would be overcooked if ulyou put it in first.

[@YouDummy]

I bought this same cooker last night and the instructions to me were completely confusing. If I put one cup of rice it says the white rice will be done between 32 and 37 minutes. If I put 4 cups of rice in, it will be between 43 and 48 minutes. Is there a 'more time' feature that I'm supposed to use, or I'm misreading something?

[@SunniDae333]

Thank you for this review! I was so confused about the chasing line on the rice cooker since it wasn't in the instructions - thank you!

[@JRahman14]

When cooking rice on the stove-top, I would usually add a few drops of coconut oil to a pot to prevent rice sticking to the pot. Would I be able to do this with the rice cooker ?

[@CoralHoyt]

Yes, you can.

[@naseerahvj]

When cooking on the stove you often sauté your rice a little bit in oil so that it doesn’t stick to itself this is common in many cultures. In a rice cooker you cannot do that but you can add a dab of butter or other oil.

[@henrickrw]

Awesome review. Excellent explanation.
