1280632342 Can You Cook Quinoa in a Microwave Rice Cooker? — Cooking Quinoa

People ask me all the time if it is ok to cook quinoa in a rice cooker. My answer, absolutely yes! In fact, I think this is one of the best ways of cooking quinoa. It creates the perfect texture, very much like the way you cook quinoa for quinoa salad. believe it or not, you can even make quinoa in a microwave rice cooker! This means that no matter how bad of a cook you are you can cook quinoa.

Of course, a microwave rice cooker is also great for, um, cooking rice. (Which I do from time to time.)

The primary advantage of a microwave rice cooker is that you can cook rice (or quinoa) with very little chance of scorching. It is also a great way to steam vegetables in the microwave, which I have heard, is one of the healthiest ways to cook vegetables. one thing to keep in mind is the size of your microwave rice cooker. most are not very large capacity, so make sure that you do not overload it.

When I cook quinoa on the stovetop, I like to add flavorings up front. I have found that with a microwave rice cooker I am much better at saving my add in’s for later.

The Zojirushi NS-LAC05 is the best 3-cup rice cooker on the market today. It is a stylish stainless steel rice cooker that makes tasty rice on a consistent basis. Read my review below to find out more about this unit.

What’s Included

  • 3-Cup rice cooker with micro-computerized fuzzy logic technology.
  • Keep Warm feature.
  • LCD display with timer.
  • Non-stick inner cooking pan for easy cleaning.
  • Menu programs include white, sushi, porridge, brown, and quick cooking.

  • Accessories includes measuring cup, nonstick rice spatula, and spatula holder.

3-Cup Micro-Computerized Rice Cooker and Warmer

In case you didn’t know, Micom stands for “micro-computerized”. What’s in it for you? well, that plus the Neuro Fuzzy technology makes several adjustments in temperature throughout the cooking process, as if a person were watching the rice while it is cooking. The result is simple: the tasty rice you are looking for.

This is a very stylish stainless steel rice cooker, which will surely attract the eyes of your visits. The small size makes it perfect for individuals or couples with no children, allowing space to receive gusts for dinner as well. also, the small size doesn’t turn storage into a problem.

Multi-Menu Selections

You can prepare a wide variety of foods with this rice cooker: for starters, white, brown and sushi rice. The Zojirushi NS-LAC05 Micom 3-Cup Rice Cooker can also be used for porridge.

The Timer function allows you to pre-program porridge for the next morning on the day before. The same applies for the dinner rice, early in the morning, as you leave home for work. This function, when well used, can be a great helper for busier people.

As a final tip, you can use the Porridge setting to prepare oatmeal as well — even the steel-cut type.

Automatic keep Warm Feature

Usually, the rice cooker will buzz a warning sound letting you know that your food is done.

However, sometimes life just happens and you are not around the stove to turn it off once the food is done. If you were cooking rice the old fashioned way, you would have to eat burnt rice or throw it all away and start from scratch.

This Zojirushi NS-LAC05 will switch automatically from Cooking to keep Warm mode. The rice freshness is guaranteed for a few hours, which should be more than enough time for you to wake up for breakfast or arrive at home for dinner.
