AKA "Carolina Cooker" is a must-have
We are serious rice eaters and was given this rice cooker as a gift from my mother-in-law in South Carolina many years ago. I was so glad to see I can order another from here. This is the best way to ensure that your rice is perfect everytime, regardless of what kind you are cooking.

I have even steamed crab legs in it! FOR RICE: Equal parts water and rice, add salt...high boil approx 30 minutes and voila! (experiment with the time to get the rice as you like it)

They replied that they no longer made that style and perhaps I would be interested in the newer model. NO WAY! Sadly I gave up, occasionally looking in kitchen stores when possible. Recently, my sister-in-law told me she had found one in Belk's in Mobile, AL, which was very similar to my old ... Read More
