Recipes are discussed, utensils are discussed and there are people who learn different ideas and recipes from different countries.

End of pennyworth!

I'm your huckelberry.. And agenda?....Well that would be rice cookers innit?...I'm sorry I asked...

Sounds like a good plan! I am intrigued now - might just have to go look at rice cookers!

Not like you to be so hostile, Twink. Seems a fun thread to me.

I wasn't being hostile, I was just pointing out that discussions & chats are allowed.... as Mags has already said!
I also remember that people who post a new thread want the topic not to be altered & I think the OP made it clear that he wanted to know what others cooked in their Rice cooker!
Harbal is relatively new, but if he had any problem with my posts he was at liberty to report them!

I don't look new, Twink.

I have no problem with your posts, and your reaction to mine was perfectly normal. In fact, quite typical.

Thank you! The one about Matron was intended as a joke... as I am sure you know!

I know it was, Twink, and Matron was quite amused by it.

Permission to speak? Harbal

Keezoy, Do rice cookers cook like a steamer? I steam all my vegetables.

As for cooking rice, l cook mine in the microwave in a steamer dish thing!

I am afraid that is wrong, you definitely need to get rid of the starch to stop it clumping together or getting mushy especially if you are steaming it - ask any Asian. It only takes a few seconds two rinses is usually enough.

I don't rinse brown rice - waste of time
