You must have a rice cooker to cook the rice. Most Japanese has and uses it. However, people started recently that it using. Once upon a time they were using the cooking oven to cook the rice. We call “kamado” to it. It is made of earth. It was hard work does cook the rice. The people must watch the stove while she cooks the rice through. It was the role of the mothers in old Japan.

Japanese started using the electric rice cooker in thirty Showa Era. The mothers could have leisure to do other things. And then, rice cooker is evolving. Quality of the rice cooker was very good. The new product is equipped with a function to wash the rice.

By the way, When use whatever pan we can cook rice. First, you gently wash the rice as soon as possible. Rice is so delicate. Washing rice is enough about several times.

Second, you prepared a pot filled with water and put in the rice. It is necessary to measure the amount of water. When you make a mistake it will fail. Besides, using deep pot and heavy lid is good. And please wait you. Waiting time is different for each season. It is longer in winter than summer.

Third, please put on a pot and boil water after you put a lid on the pot. After a while, it gives rise to bubbles. You wait and see, and weaken the condition of fire.

Finally, you turn off the fire, and you will wait a long time. It is the work that steaming rice, so then you should not open the lid of the pot. And then, you completed if there are no water in the pot.

I used this way when I was junior high school student. It is very fun. Please try it by all means.

Next time, I will talk about Japanese staple food. Why we eat rice often?

See you.
