Rice is a staple of Japanese cuisine, and a well-made rice cooker is a must-have tool. Designed to be used on gas stove tops, this ceramic pot with a double lid prevents liquid from boiling over when cooking and – thanks to the right level of pressure and heat – makes rice that’s delicious and fluffy. Reference lines inside the pot make it easy to know how much dried rice and water to add. Take the stress out of mealtime – the rice, at least, is sorted.
