Aroma Rice Cooker and Food Steamer Review

There are programmable digital controls. There is a 15-hour delay timer and white rice and brown rice functions.
The unit includes a rice measuring cup which is a ¾ cup standard US cup. steam tray, spatula, user manual with recipes and coupons.
The inside has a teflon coating and the pot is aluminum.
This cooker makes 2 to 8 cups of any variety of rice. Vegetables and meat can be steamed above while rice cooks below. You can also make chili, jambalaya and soups in the cooker.
When the rice finishes cooking, the cooker automatically switches to warm mode to keep food warm. Rice should not be left in the cooker on Keep-warm for more than 10 hours.
I’ll test the cooker by making 2 cups of rice. Fill the water to line 2. It took 35 minutes for the rice to finish cooking.
The beans I steamed and the 2 cups of rice were cooked perfectly.
The Aroma 8 cup digital rice cooker and steamer is affordable, easy to use and a great value for money.

I know this video was a long time ago, but I'm thrilled I found it. I bought this same cooker at a thrift store; it's new, but didn't come with an instruction manual. Fortunately, I found that online too, but this was great to watch. Thank you. sj

Just a little bit of advice from an African who cooks and eats rice every single day. Always add a little bit of oil and salt to your water before you cook the rice.

Easy as pie. Gorgeous results. It’s now sitting on the counter for daily use! Son left it but had no booklet. Perfect every time!

+Julie Winterton Hi Julie, yes you can add veggies to steam anytime during the rice cooking cycle. The countdown at 12 minutes is a good time to steam or a few minutes afterwards depending on how you like your veggies cooked. Hope that helps. Please subscribe :)

If you are cooking rice, specially short grain rice, when you are away, use the delay setting. White short grain rice will start to turn into "rice pudding" after a couple of hours on the keep warm setting.

For firm short grain white rice that is mostly popular in the Caribbean, the ratio is 1:1. One cup of water, one cup of rice. Rice cookers require less oil than traditional cooking and stir the rice before adding salt to avoid salty spots.

First-time -steamer, here... I was gonna choose a pot insert. You changed my mind and now am inspired to use THIS instead!!!

I cook brown rice in mine, with a couple of frozen chicken breasts in the steamer rack at the same time. When the rice is done, the chicken is fully cooked. The newer10-cup version of this cooker has a convenient delay timer.

This is why I subscribe to your channel. You give me step by step instructions to everything like I’m a child and that’s what I’m looking for. You don’t miss nothing down to showing us the booklets of coupons. Lol
I watched one person because you and it was disturbing to watch because it wasn’t enough of details. 4 minutes of my time I can’t get back. Thank you Lady Cooker

Purchased this 6 months ago and finally decided to try it out

I love mine, 4 years ...and still works perfectly !

[kristenalicia]

I looked at a few videos and yours is the best. Straight to it. Great info. Very simple directions and you made it simple to understand. Thank you!

I love this cooking pot!! It really does cook rice to perfection and I can do so many types of rice, I just add my desired ingredients after rice is cooked and then leave to keep warm for a few more mins. White-Brown or Yellow rice with corn, with vegetables, peas, etc. Definitely one of my best buys of 2015. Will try the steamer today, hence my bumping into this vid ^^

I got a rice cooker yesterday as a gift...I found your video helpful..thank u😃

[Candee_Kane]

In 2024, your video has assisted me in using my rice cooker. Thank you so much! 🍚 😊

Very much considering getting one of these and an egg steamer as well. Probably could use this to do eggs too but the separate egg machine comes with all the egg-oriented accessories. Thanks for the review!

God, I hope there's a way to disable that beeping. I like to make rice at midnight with my parents sleeping in a room nearby, if they heard that it would increase my chances of being kicked out.

[johnellstrom]

It is a good machine I bought one and it works great. Makes awesome brown rice and you can steam meat at the same time.
