Product Information

The Joseph Joseph microwave rice cooker is a neat, stylish and efficient cooker that makes from one to six portions of fluffy rice. If there’s a one-task kitchen gadget that’s worth finding the cabinet space for, it's our top pick from Zojirushi. One common complaint we hear from people using a Zojirushi Micom or other premium rice cookers for the first time is that they take a long time to cook. We feel comfortable recommending this cooker as well and will continue to provide more in-depth information with long-term testing.

An unevenly cooked pot of rice can have crispy edges and a mushy center or undercooked grains on top and soggy grains on the bottom.Our rice stuck to the seasoned clay, and we found the nub of the scalding-hot interior lid difficult to grasp.

For a household like ours that eats rice or rice-based meals on the regular, having a machine like this in our kitchen has been really helpful. Although some of the units in the cooking chart are overly complicated (for example, to cook long-grain white rice, it advises adding 1 and 3/16 cups of water), we had no issues navigating the controls. For jasmine rice, this was the fastest cooker of all our picks; just 34 to 37 minutes stand between you and nicely cooked rice.In this endless variety of rice recipes, one can certainly say that it is one of the most comforting things to have. It produced impressive results with medium-grain white rice and long-grain basmati and possessed a number of features more advanced than what you'd normally get on a low-cost machine, such as warming and preprogramming options. A 500ml cooker will produce up to two portions, while the largest on test (6 litres) will make eight portions.

The cookers that delivered great flavor and texture in a reasonable amount of time then moved on to testing with brown rice and basmati. In previous tests, the Neuro Fuzzy was the only cooker that still made decent rice with separate, firm grains when we added almost twice the needed amount of water, likely due to its advanced fuzzy-logic chip. You don’t have to use these paddles—a wooden spoon would work as well—but do not use metal utensils or anything that can scratch the nonstick coating inside the pot. If we mismeasured the rice-to-water ratio even slightly, the grains congealed together in a gelled lattice of mush.When it’s finished cooking, the Neuro Fuzzy plays a chipper, electronic rendition of the French gavotte “Amaryllis” (video), which we found charming. Of our three picks, we think this lid is the easiest to remove and put back on, with a simple pull tab design. This Cuckoo suffered the same design issues as the CR-0675F, but with the addition of a sputtering pressure cooker valve.

I spoke with 19 experts about their own favorite models, which ranged from cheap and straightforward contraptions to more high-tech machines, and then tested some out myself. Sometimes these settings, with the same grains and same water ratios, would function without issue at all.It comes with a thickened aluminum inner pot and can also prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan! In both cases, the results were almost as good as what we made in some Tiger and Cuckoo machines that cost two or three times as much.

All of the rice cookers we tested, with the exception of the Instant Pot and the Greenpan models, have inner pots with a nonstick coating; this coating is essential for easy cleaning.
