I have a zojirushi fuzzy logic rice cooker. Can I cook this rice in it? (Or any rice cooker for that matter.) Thanks.

The package just has instructions for stove top. Sorry do not know about rice cooker. Try e-mailing the company.

Hi, I love to cook my rice in the rice cooker however I usually add just a lil more water and I make at least 2-3 servings. Making one serving usually burns or drys out quickly. Hope this helps!

I have not tried it in a rice cooker, but it cooks up the same a regular rice so I am sure it will cook fine in a rice cooker.

I would do it but not a large amount because it is Batsami rice is does tend to foam more as I cook it on the stove top and have to watch it closely till it simmers. Delicious and healthy. U will love it. Sure is not Uncle Bens Converted Rice! Had a rice cooker once a long time ago when I was making much to feed a crowd. Still 2 to 1 ratio. All we buy now unless I want to make brown rice or wild. Quinoa is great as well as kasha as an alternative to rice !

Hi Millie. I really hate it when people who don't know the answer answer anyway. It's so useless.Anyway - yes, you can cook it in a rice cooker. Thru trial and error I've discovered that pretty much any whole grain can be cooked that way. I have a small rice cooker and figured out that if I stick to 1 cup grains to 2 cups water it's usually fine. Amaranth doesn't have to be rinsed first but make sure you read the package of any other whole grain to see if that one does need to be rinsed.

Just use this... The rice cooker I bought in Japan was working here, but not working correctly. This solved the problem. I've had it for 2 months and it gets used almost daily and its been working great so far.

Interesting question! I do not think I would do this. The instructions that come with the rice cooker do not address using this for long term cooking. Would stick with a crock pot for a stew. Crock pots have thicker sides and would hold the heat better, I would think.

We have only used ours to cook rice. I would not try to use it as a pressure cooker for anything other than rice. Have you tried to find an owners manual online for this or a similar rice cooker? That may provide better information on what you can and cant use this for.

Yes, you can cook any type of rice and rice recipes in this cooker, it is great!

You can use a rice cooker with any rice but it'll be almost the same hardness as uncooked. It will puff if you do it on the stove with double the water and double the time.

I think this pressure cooker is not so good for cooking rice. She is very good but for cooking meats, vegetables, beans.

I only tried the rice cooker; I did not try any of the other components. I was so dissatisfied with it and with the confusing directions that I want to return the appliance but I don't know where to do so.

To Sandy P - I have had this rice cooker since 2007 and use it often. I bought it from Amazon, too. I have never had a single time that the rice has gone mushy, even a small part of it. The rice is always thoroughly cooked and the grains are cooked through and separate grains. I do adjust the water if it is unusually humid or the weather is very dry (not often here in Florida). I have left the rice in the cooker over night by mistake and it still does not get mushy. The best thing to do for me, is the fluff the rice up right away when it has finished cooking. I usually just grab a pair of chop sticks and it makes quick work to reach even the rice in the bottom of the cooking bowl. After I fluff it up, I put it in a container to store it. I make sure that the container has a top that seals tightly. I keep it in the refrigerator and then warm it up in the microwave. If it drys out too much in the refrigerator, I put it in a pot on the stove with lots of water, bring it to a boil, turn off the heat, then let it absorb whatever water it needs to reconstitute itself, and then I pour the extra water out through a fine strainer so as not to lose any of the cooked rice. It's like having perfect, almost instant rice, though much, much better! I would not be with out my rice cooker. Yumm. And so easy! If you have the small 3 -Cup size ... be sure and keep the overflow area clean, along with emptying and cleaning the little cup on the back of the rice cooker. If the valves in the lid or back openings get stopped up, I think that might give anyone some trouble with moisture collecting somewhere else, rather than being drained off and discarded by the user. Just saying. Ruth Ditmore Craig

About cooking rice - I would assume so but have not tried it. The cooking insert is very large so you would need to cook a lot of rice and probably use the regular heat - not the slow cooking setting.

I HIGHLY recommend a rice cooker for rice. I've not used this particular appliance, but own a rice cooker and it is so much easier, better, and more consistent than cooking it on the stove. Set it and forget it!

You can make any kind of rice with a rice cooker. I cook brown rice in mine all the time. As long as you put in the right amount of water, the rice will turn out fine.

Yes. I only cook brown rice in mine.I cook a cup of brown rice once a week/every week. Cooks it wonderfully. The cooker has held up nicely. Would highly recommend!
