Rice Cooker Meals
I know about crockpot cooking and pressure cooking. But it’s the first time I’ve heard about cooking entire meals in a rice cooker. Sure, I have a rice cooker (can’t live without it!). But I use it for one thing and one thing only: cooking plain (aka steamed) rice.
I didn’t even realize that a rice cooker can function like a slow cooker, only it’s faster. Neal Bertrand shares his recipes for “60 quick, easy meals you can make in a rice cooker”, in his cookbook Rice Cooker Meals: Fast Home Cooking for Busy People. Cooking meals in a rice cooker are a great alternative for college students, campers and those who want to cook at home but don’t have the space or equipment for it.
The cookbook includes recipes for jambalayas, casseroles, seafood, pastas, yams, soups, potatoes, cabbage and rice side dishes. Two sample recipes (pdf files) are provided at RiceCookerMeals.com: Black-eyed pea and sausage jambalaya, and Chicken and Pasta.
I’ll have to rethink the way I use my rice cooker.
