Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We absolutely love our KitchenAid rice cooker! The automatic weighing and water-adding feature is a game-changer—no more guessing or measuring. Just pour in the rice, and it does the rest with perfect precision. We’ve also used it to cook pinto beans, and they came out tender and flavorful with zero hassle. This countertop appliance has quickly become one of our kitchen favorites. It’s sleek, easy to use, and incredibly reliable. Whether you’re cooking rice, beans, or experimenting with other grains, it delivers perfect results every time. We highly recommend it to anyone looking to simplify and elevate their cooking routine!
Must have ! Ask Santa for it
The very first day I knew I could never go back ton basic rice cooker.
I love it and pretty much use it every day In fact, I leave it on counter top as it’s become my staple appliance. I have no patience hanging over a stove stirring and often mess up grains - for me this is a game changer. Set it and go - perfect every time.
If you don’t eat lots of grains It may not be for you but Im hooked.
We have only used it several times, but the rice has come out perfect every time.
It came very well packaged, and it came quickly.
So far, no complaints other than the price.
The keep warm function is excellent as well, I had started my rice and was behind on other things, the rice stayed perfectly done almost half an hour until we served it
I cooked up pinto beans which, if you've done them on the stove, takes for-ev-er to cook. You have to soak them first, or it's generally recommended that you do, overnight and then you cook them and even that takes hours to do. It can be super messy and annoying and the whole thing is an ordeal. If you're not someone who cares to cook but still want a healthy meal, something like pinto beans seems like an attractive option since you don't really have to work a lot at it.. until you have to clean everything up.
Well, not here. The beans in the left are from the KitchenAid, the ones on the right are from a slow cooker (pressure cooker, actually, but same appliance just set on pressure cooker). The beans from the KitchenAid appear fatter and are more tender, so the water is penetrating quite nicely. The ones from the slow (pressure) cooker, while not bad, definitely are smaller and not as tender. The color from the pressure cook is more appetizing, but I also had other incredients cooking with them as well, so I don't think the color would be much different if it were just pure water.
The time to boil and soak the beans, then cook in a pressure cooker setting, took about 3 hours. In the KitchenAid, it took exactly two hours. No soaking, no measuring of water, no extra steps. Just dump the beans in, take some out to match the weight expected by the appliance (it weighs and tells you exactly, it'll complain until you remove the right amount, it's amazing. It has a setting specific for pinto beans. ), and then press start. That's literally it. Fill the pot with beans, you fill the container with water, it does the rest. Like.. I can't stress how insanely simple it is.
I'm mostly going to be cooking beans in this thing, but I'm going to be fixing a LOT of beans in it now that I know how stupidly easy it is to do. Like.. why wouldn't I? I almost don't have to do any work to get a healthy meal out of it. Given I'm trying to cut carbs, I can't really do much with rice right now, but I have zero doubts this thing cooks the most amazingly awesome rice ever. It's now got an enshrined spot next to me air fryer and microwave, it's a kitchen essential.
As for how dinner was? It was good. Needed some salt, but good.
For example, I recently made pinto beans using the quick soak mode, and the results were amazing - the beans were perfectly cooked and tender, and the quick soak feature saved me time, effort and dishes compared to traditional soaking methods. Note: Although I chose the pre-soak, there is no pre-soaking required if you want to keep things simple!
I love that the cooker weighs food, so I don't need to use an entire pound of beans at once. I can cook just the amount I need, which is perfect for smaller portions (if you add too much or too little the machine will inform you and gives you the option to remove some or add more).
The machine cleverly leads you through a menu that allows for customizing the level of doneness, whether the ingredients are pre-soaked or not, what ingredient you're cooking and adjustment of cook times, if desired.
The machine's quick soak feature will heat beans, then soak them for up to 2 hours before beginning cooking. There's also a cooking delay feature which is perfect for scheduling a bowl of steel cut oats!
The cooker's weighing function allows me to cook only enough to add as an ingredient - for instance, just enough beans to round out a vegetable soup. Or some barley for beef stew or for breakfast.
When the cooking is done, there is sometimes a bit of extra water depending on what I've cooked. You can drain this water or add some soup base to make it into a broth - or use it to rehydrate some dried vegetables to add to the beans. I used some to puree a few beans to make a hearty vegetable bean soup.
I've also experimented with adding broth and seasonings directly to the cooking pot with the grains, rice, or beans, and the results have been extra flavorful, especially when I add a few seasonings. I like to stir salsa, chopped ancho peppers and onions into the rice after it's cooked for Taco night.
I'm excited to try out some of the recipes in the recipe book it comes with. I also want to make a Three-Bean Salad - one of my favorites! This should make cooking the three different beans a much simpler process!
Cleanup is so easy - the ceramic pot, steamer insert, and other removable parts can be cleaned in the dishwasher, and the automated cleaning cycle helps loosen and remove any residue on the sides of the bowl.
I would highly recommend the KitchenAid Rice and Grain Cooker to anyone looking for an easy, convenient, and smart way to cook healthy, delicious meals at home. It takes away the guesswork when preparing many foods that I will be cooking more often now that it can be hassle-free.
This machine will be taking center stage on my counter top as I explore the many ways it can help me easily add more healthful whole grains, rice and beans to my diet!
