Beth Hensperger and Julie Kaufmann's
The Ultimate Rice Cooker Cookbook offers 250 timesaving, convenient, and healthy recipes for making everything from simple white rice to full-course meals. This cookbook proves the rice cooker--which tends to have a bad rap as a never-opened or oft-neglected wedding gift--can be surprisingly versatile: not only does it prepare your rice, it can be used for every dinner course--salad, soup, vegetable, entree, and even dessert.
There is a complete buying and cooking guide for the many rice varieties, as well as other whole grains such as barley, millet, wheat berry, and quinoa. Many of the recipes provide convenient alternative cooking methods for traditional dishes like Italian risottos (the Italian Sausage Risotto is wonderful). Hensperger and Kaufmann show the rice cooker can also work miracles for hot breakfast cereals and porridges with such recipes as Hot Fruited Oatmeal. Delightful main courses include Steamed Ginger Salmon and Asparagus in Black Bean Sauce, and the meal is done almost exclusively within the rice cooker for simple preparation and cleanup. The dessert section has many ideas beyond the expected Old-Fashioned Rice Pudding--the Poached Pears with Grand Marnier Custard Sauce is one elegant and sophisticated example. Both authors of this cookbook are seasoned food writers and this combined effort gives tasty, easy, and healthy recipes that will motivate you to use what has been, until now, an underutilized appliance. --Teresa Simanton
The Ultimate Rice Cooker Cookbook proves there's more to this popular appliance than a convenient way to cook a pot of rice. Complete with tips on buying and using a rice cooker, as well as selecting and preparing every kind of rice, grain, and dried bean, this book includes 250 recipes for everything from hot breakfast cereals and creamy desserts and puddings to classic vegetable, bean, and rice combinations and savory whole meal cuisines.
| F for type design! | 2010-03-11 | 2 / 5 |

| What genius came up with the idea of using light orange type on a pale orange background? Or light green type on beige paper? Tasteful and completely useless. This cookbook may be very good. Or not. I don't think I will ever know. Reading it in the kitchen would necessitate a flashlight and magnifying glass. And it would be worse in any other room. |

| Ordered this for our son who is away at college living in an apartment. He used a spanish rice recipe out of the book and cooked it in his new rice cooker. He said the rice was very tasty, just a little dry. He will use a little more liquid next time and cannot wait to use other recipes out of the book. |
| Disappointed | 2010-02-22 | 2 / 5 |

| I ordered this book after my recent purchase of a rice cooker and was very much looking forward to trying the great sounding recipes. I was so disappointed when I opened the book and saw the print. It is printed in a light olive green print and a light orange print, both of which are drab and faded looking. Maybe it's just me, but I kind of like to see the recipe I'm trying to make. If this book had black or a much darker print that was easy to see, I'm sure I would have liked it. Unfortunately, I found the print annoying enough to return it. |

| I wish I could tell you that I just love the book but am sorry to say it was disappointing. The layout is hard to follow but trying to read the print is frustrating. It is colored in a fine light green and pale orange print that makes it very difficult to see. If you have any eye condition at all you may want to consider a cookbook in different colors. |
| stainless steel bowl!!!??? | 2010-01-22 | 1 / 5 |

I have not yet bought this item...I am just beginning my search for
a new rice cooker BUT WITH A STAINLESS STEEL BOWL!!!
I live in Europe, and haven't been able to find one here!!!
Why haven't the manufacturers of rice cookers realized
that their buying public no longer wants to buy TEFLON or
aluminium bowls in their rice cookers!!!
Unfortunately I have been using an aluminum one for years
with the suspicion that it is harmful to my health and my
family's health!!!
I have thrown out all of my Teflon pans and only now use
heavy stainless steel pots and pans!!! A little more difficult
perhaps to clean, but if you soak them, no problem!!!
And I assume healthier than what the FDA or others have allowed
on the market for YEARS that are harmful to the public health!!!!
I'd buy the book...but only when I find the non-toxic rice cooker!!! |
