Rice always seemed under cooked, Or it doesn't have the fluff like it should when you take a fork to it.The outdoor chef,
What problems have you had?
Like bacon, the best non-rice cooker way of cooking it is in the oven.

Rice always seemed under cooked, Or it doesn't have the fluff like it should when you take a fork to it.
And how can you brown the rice before you cook it in a ricer?
If you do this everyday you need a dedicated rice cooker.....something you can do with your eyes closed.
Thank you for the advice everyone.You need to add a bit more water if it seems under cooked.
Please explain, "brown the rice"...

Brown the rice.
Ingredients.
1. 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil.
2.3 Tablespoons butter "Amish is good"
3.1/4 to a half cup of Coconut shreds.
Melt the butter as the oil heats up.
Add the rice and the coconut.
Toast each ingredient "until you see a golden brown hue on each ingredient."
Add the chicken Stock.
Keep adding the stock and stirr until you have "risotto"
LOL! In that case you are not just cooking rice, you are making risotto. Rice cookers are more utilitarian. You can add flavors, veggies, etc., but in the end, you are still just steaming the rice.
You could brown first and then add it to the cooker with the stock...I would

Actually, I have a rice cooker risotto recipe that turns out amazing results. Some people will tell you it is not possible, but those people have not tasted this version.Yes, you wouldn't use a rice cooker to make risotto, or "brown the rice" as you call it.
Maybe he or she is referring to recipes that call for browning rice first? I have a Panasonic, and I have browned rice in it. You just set it to the "quick" or the "regular" cycle and saute the rice or whatever you want to saute. The you add the other ingredients, close, and reset.

Yes, you can brown rice in a rice cooker. Just add the rice and turn it on and stir until it browns. Once it browns then add your liquid and close the cover and start the cooker again.
You sure can, but you will need to account for the liquid they will absorb and add more for the rice.
