Searching for an electric rice cooker with inside pot NOT aluminum.

 

Stainless okay.  Glass okay.  Ceramic okay.

(Found stainless but it is not electric -- designed for camping.)

 

Size: about 1 Ltr.

Not huge restaurant unit.

 

Teflon non-stick doesn't matter.

 

"Features" and settings don't matter.

Just steam the rice and turn off.

 

Just no aluminum.

 

Where to find a rice cooker with pot that is not aluminum?

Aluminium for the inside of an electric rice cooker? What's this world coming to?

 

There are two electric rice cookers in my wife's kitchen cabinets. How do I know if the inside is made of aluminium? Is it when a magnet does not stick to it?

 

The magnet doesn't stick to either of them. The label of one says that it is made in Japan, the label of the other does not give the country of manufacture but the name and and address of a company in Germany.

 

My wife is not around at the moment to ask her where she bought them.

You got got point there, I never understood why aluminum!

Rice stick to it hard and it can emit bad stuff to the rice.

Same with teflon coating etc

If the OP is concerned about a link between aluminium and Alzheimer's, it's an urban myth.

 

The misconception arose when brain schists from dementia sufferers were analyzed post-mortem, and found to contain traces of aluminium.

 

On further investigation, it was found an aluminium microtome had been used to prepare the brain schists. Cross-contamination.

 

Sure Aluminium is not bad for you..

 

Neither is Fluoride, or MSG or Aspartame, or GMO food or bla bla...Which the the authorities say are all as safe as can be..

 

I would say there is a very good chance cooking with Aluminium on high heat could be very bad for your health....

About Teflon, used not only foul odour or smell but also PFAS.

I have a Cornell electric rice cooker with a stainless steel inner pot, but lately I have been cooking rice in a microwave oven.

Use a glass dish with cover. Rice to water in the ratio of 1:1.5.   10 oz rice plus15 oz water is enough for two. No leftover to deal with and freshly cooked rice taste very good.

Cook in a 800W microwave oven at full power for 5 minutes, then at 400W for another 15 minutes.
