The backbone of many global dishes, rice is one of the most consumed food today. You can simply cook it in a pot, but would that give you fluffy rice cooked to perfection every time? I think not. A rice cooker makes things easier, just load your ingredients and at the push of a button, you'll have flawlessly cooked rice without needing to modulate heat settings, set timers or stay in the kitchen while it cooks.
