How many times a week do you plan a meal, only to change your mind because the meal requires you to cook rice? Cooking rice can often present challenges: too little prep time, not sure about the finish time for this side dish, or keeping the rice warm. If this sounds familiar, you may find the Tiger Microcomputer Controlled Rice Cooker we reviewed a great solution. This handy device helped us not only forge ahead with our ideas for creative meals; but we felt inspired to create even more dishes around this delicious global staple.

With the state-of-the-art technology of this rice cooker, you can start your rice and move on to other tasks without worrying about losing track of when your rice will finish cooking! A countdown timer lets you know when your rice has 10 minutes left and then counts down each minute until completion. Need more time for that meat under the broiler or to finish your gravy? The Tiger Rice Cooker effortlessly keeps your rice warm without it becoming sticky or gooey, allowing you to complete your meal prep worry-free.

The Tiger Microcomputer Controlled Rice Cooker even comes with a cooking plate insert, allowing you to steam vegetables and meat as you cook your rice. A delicious, nutritious dinner for two – perfectly-cooked every time – with minimal prep and clean up. This option and versatility could work beautifully for the nights when different family members eat at different times. A meal could be prepped and cooked in the appliance and eaten when your child gets home from soccer practice. Everyone gets a nutritious, homemade meal – even latecomers to dinner.

The only issue we found was that the instruction manual seemed a bit complex, so determining the ideal rice/water ratio initially proved challenging. Eventually, we simply used the amounts on the rice packaging, and it turned out beautifully – which actually makes it easy because you don’t have to change your cooking habits.

Moreover, the Tiger Rice Cooker looks sleek and modern – it has the heft and functionality of a high-quality, small kitchen appliance and as a result, can easily sit out on a countertop every day. We even enjoyed a warm weekend lunch – comprised of chicken, mushrooms, and leeks simmered in a spicy sauce – on a cool day thanks to this rice cooker. Any kind of rice gets cooked well in the Tiger Microcomputer Controlled Rice cooker: basmati, sushi, brown, white rice. Enjoy your favorite kinds of rice, exactly how you like them.

Adding a Tiger Microcomputer Controlled Rice Cooker to your kitchen will not only give you perfect rice every time you use it, you will find yourself drawn to choosing recipes with rice in them because you know your dish will come out beautifully. Foolproof rice happens every time, at any time, with this sturdy, reliable, great-looking appliance.
