Customer Reviews of Farberware FRA3 3-Cup Rice Cooker and Steamer
Customer Rating: Summary: Crappy Rice Cooker Comment: I have a large Wolfgang Puck rice cooker which is excellent, with a non stick pan. I decided to get a smaller rice cooker and ended up with this. As stated previously, the pan is not non stick, so the rice sticks and I had to scrape it off, which scratched the pan. Buy a better rice cooker with a non stick pan. Customer Rating: Summary: Not worth the price Comment: This rice cooker is one of the crappiest I've seen. As the previous review states, rice always sticks to the bottom and turns yellow. On top of that, It sprays watery goo everywhere through the vent in the cover. Even after following the directions to a T (and making some adjustments of my own to try to fix the issue), I still end up with a sticky counter. I ended up just going back to a regular pot again. Definitely a waste of money. Customer Rating: Summary: Good deal for the price Comment: It is OK. The rice cooker is cheap and light-weighted. I use it to cook white rice for my own, it cooks fast. However, some rice on the bottom get yellow every time, which is not satisfactory. Anyway, it is worth the price. More Reviews Choosing Appliance -> Cooking Pans This is another area where spending money is justified. The best pans combine different metals like aluminum or copper on the outside and stainless steel on the inside. Aluminum and copper are valued for their ability to spread heat evenly over the entire pan, and stainless steel is valued for its non-reactive qualities. Buy pans which are heavy and thick with solid handles that are well fastened to the pot. As with knives, buy the highest quality cooking pans you can afford one at a time, starting with a saute pan and a 3 qt. sauce pan. They will last forever. At some point, a stock pot (which will be especially pricey) should be considered for serious cooking. Choosing Appliance -> Salad spinner While some may consider this a bit on the gadgety side, I think it is a must as dressings do not stick to water-logged salad greens. Farberware FRA3 3-Cup Rice Cooker and Steamer Kitchen tips -> Cooking burgers When cooking burgers, create a small hole, about ? inch wide, in the center of the burger before cooking it. The hole allows the burger to cook from the inside and outside, producing a more evenly cooked burger |
