Cookbook Review:
300 Best Rice Cooker Recipes

Once I read through the cookbook 300 Best Rice Cooker Recipes: Also Including Legumes and Whole Grains I realized that I really want to buy a rice cooker.

I had no idea that they could be so versatile!

I also had no idea that mankind has been using rice cookers since at least 1200 BC. Of course they have come a long way. Todays rice cookers are technical marvels and it looks like a must have in the kitchen from the look of these tasty recipes.

Not only can you cook any kind of rice, including healthy brown rice, but you can also use it to cook legumes and whole grains.

Author Katie Chin even includes a cooking chart for everything from pinto beans to great Northern beans to couscous, quinoa, spelt and millet. Plus of course every variety of rice.

The recipes in this cookbook are easy and delicious looking. Katie covers everything from oatmeal for breakfast to risotto for dinner.

Cary Phillips also give it 5 out of 5 stars. He says:

"I'm a rice freak and love eating brown rice with honey for breakfast. I also love rice dishes with my dinner. (Not a potato guy). This book was an incredible find and opened up a whole world of culinary options for all my rice needs. Thank you, Katie. If you'd added 56 other recipes -- I could've had a different dish every day for a year!"

Luvs2cook has this to say:

"I have had a rice cooker sitting on my counter for the past two years and up until now I thought it was only good for making white or brown rice. A friend told me about his book so I ordered it and I was blown away at all the things I learned I can do with it. The recipes cover every type of food so I have made delicious risotto, tasty ciopinno and amazing grains. The quinoa tabouli is delicious and really simple to make. I haven't tried making the chocolate cake yet but maybe next week. The directions are easy to follow and the book is written in a really approachable style. If you own a rice cooker this is a must have."

I really like this cookbook and will add a rice cooker to my kitchen immediately.

Here's a fantastic rice cooker that does quadruple the job. It's a steamer, slow cooker, rice cooker and oatmeal maker:
