There's this 8-cup one

and this 6-cup one

with clay liners. (Looks like they're temporarily out of the larger

one right now, though.)

How about rice cookers? Anyone have information on any cookers without

non-stick interiors?

Many thanks for the links. This is a non-stick cooking surface product

that I asked about and you were kind enough to supply. I wanted this to

be the answer to my search but am not yet convinced. Here are the

results of what I came across.

 

While probably a major improvement over Teflon, the manufacturer

Essenenergy's website has a number of broken links and won't provide a

lead-free certificate. There are numerous glowing reports about the

cooker but mostly from vendors not consumers.

 

There are several reviews on Amazon. Most are pleased but the ones

concerned about the porous nature of the clay (extracted and assembled

made in China) do not recommend purchase *http://tinyurl.com/7me4vz* .

I'm sure that a clay pot would would work fine, I just wish this one

came from a country with higher standards for manufacture.

 

Yours in health

You're welcome for the info. I have no experience with these cookers,

but was intrigued enough to save the links. It's not looking good, is

it? Thanks for sharing your research with us.

 

I'm looking into cooking rice in my pressure cooker using a stainless

steel or ceramic bowl inside the (steel) cooker (I haven't tried that

either). Not what you asked about, but here's a link

anyway for those who might be interested. I have too many gadgets

already.

Rice will only take 7 min to cook, saw a guy on TV who put rice in a pot, then just enough water to cover, then cooks on low for 7 min, mind you I only boil the water then add the rice, and then turn off the heat, it then reduces the water, I dislike fluffy rice, fluffy is ok in a rice pud,

I prefer short-grain brown rice, which is moderately sticky, as brown

rice goes. I don't think brown rice will cook in 7 minutes using your

method (if it gets fully cooked at all); it's still 12-15 in a pressure

cooker. I'm still not sure why cooking it fast is a problem, sounds

like a plus to me.

 

But it's great that there are so many different ways to cook rice,

something for everybody!
