Choosing a slow cooker, rice cooker (1)

Good evening. Also in this Temko I will ask. How do you pour out biscuits, if the diameter at the bottom of the saucepan is about 16 cm. The cake will turn out wrong if it works out.

Of course it will work! Of course wrong! But this makes it no less beautiful, fluffy and tasty.

what else is she so smart about?

Here's Maruchi and Redmond 🔗 🔗
The functions are the same, both there and there are two more programs than Kuchina's, and this very heating. The prices are approximately similar.

[Electric multicooker]

Electric multicooker - direct descendant
electric rice cooker. These devices came to us from the East, where rice is one of the most popular food products. In principle, even in a rice cooker, you can cook not only rice, but also other products and dishes. Various cereals, vegetables, even pilaf or goulash (made from pre-fried ingredients), soups. As for the multicooker, it is an improved rice cooker. In it you can not only cook and stew food, it is also suitable for baking, there are models with the possibility of steaming dishes, even with the possibility of frying.

Quick reference
Structurally, the multicooker is not too complicated - it is a container for food (with a non-stick coating), which is inserted into a plastic or metal case with heating elements. Products in a multicooker can often be cooked without stirring, without turning (but still, here you also need to focus on the recipe). A container with a non-stick coating can be of different volumes for different models of multicooker. There are small three-liter multi-cookers, there are also more spacious ones - for 4-5 liters. The most capacious multicooker is now six-liter.
The design of a modern multicooker, as a rule, provides for electronic control. Including the presence of automatic cooking programs. There can be up to 10 of them. The user only needs to put the ingredients for cooking the dish into the multicooker and activate the appropriate program (for example, "Plov"). The device will calculate itself at what temperature to cook and how long it will take. Of course, in a modern multicooker it is usually possible to set the cooking parameters yourself: select the mode ("Stewing", "Cooking", etc.), set the time.
It is also important to have a multi-mode timer in the multicooker (for setting the cooking time or delayed start time). It is also good if there is a “Keep warm” function in the multicooker: at the end of cooking, the device does not turn off, but for a certain time it switches to an economical mode of operation that allows you to keep the finished dish warm. Usually the maximum duration of the multicooker operation in this mode is 24 hours.

Pay attention also to the power of the multicooker. Usually, the characteristics of the appliance always indicate the maximum possible power indicator in the cooking mode. The higher the power, the faster the food cooks. The average power of a modern multicooker is 600-800 watts. There are models that are slightly less or more powerful.

These are, in fact, all the main features of the multicooker.

balerian1, did you write this or is it a quote from an article by some journalist?

What the Russians called a multicooker is still called a rice cooker by manufacturers, otherwise direct descendant gyyy
By the way, you can also bake in a simple one-button rice cooker.

well friends, this already sucks. Such a function of keeping warm was also 20 years ago in ordinary one-button rice cookers, and now even more so in absolutely all.

gypsy, so I just can't understand - why such hatred for my posts ??? ... whatever I write - you must definitely groan !! instead of pouring mud on others, they would write themselves ... or are there no correct words?

[balerian1]

balerian1 believe me, u gypsies and there are many words and information. By the way, regarding multi- and rice cookers, she is our main supplier of information. It was she who helped to understand all the intricacies and tricks of rice cookers.

And she didn't mock anyone here. She just made a few sarcastic (and absolutely correct) remarks about the quoted article.

So let's live together. It's just that different people have different communication styles. For example, I am today.

[balerian1]

balerian1, it's just that there are literate people here, many have been using multicooker for several years and it is simply not worth reminding them the common truths, which have already been written many times ...
Tsykanka, only meant that, you shouldn't react so violently ...

[Gypsy]

Gypsy, and on European and Murykan ibey and Amazons, electronically controlled pots are also called multi-cookers, that is, multicooker

In America, it is called Rice Cooker, adding Fuzzy Logic, or Computerized ...

Well, looking for Multi-Cooker is also

Plus Electronic Multi-Function Rice Cooker, Microcomputer Controlled Rice Cooker, Smart Rice Cooker, et cetera, et cetera ...
In general, even if you cry with a glitch, just don't poke into the oven ...

And by the way, this is an idea ... to make a list by which names to look for saucepans on foreign sites ...

[Gypsy]

gypsy, so I just can't understand - why such hatred for my posts ??? ... whatever I write - you must definitely groan !! instead of pouring mud on others, they would write themselves ... or are there no correct words?

Gypsy already wrote about rice cookers. It started 4 years ago. And you recently came to the forum, but we all already know that you are a representative of the Viscount company and your warehouse is crammed with spare parts from multicooker. And that you already cooked 2 dishes already in it. And that you are extremely vulnerable. Or do you prefer that we do not react to your posts at all ?, like, they are not

Dopleta, did you see what kind of stove did you release?
https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=101750.0
I would buy one

Dopleta, did you see what kind of stove did you release?

Wow! Class! True, I don’t like rice bread, it’s dryish ... I prefer rice pampushki. But once from ordinary flour, and besides, she will dare it herself ... There is a field for thought!

IRR and this is a thought I mail for happiness if you in no way will react to my posts ..... it's better in any way than that!

And I ignored you for 2 days. After you wrote that you cannot get a fried crust for chicken in a multicooker and sent everyone to make it in an airfryer, and then screwed it up there yourself, you lost all interest for me. what a blue sky ...

shl. live in peace, this is my last post addressed to you.

Help advice in choosing a multicooker. We need a slow cooker to cook morning milk porridge for a child on the timer and soup without meat for lunch while we walk with him. It is desirable to have an insert for steaming, since I cook some of the vegetables for dinner.

All multicooker with the functions you need. They all have steaming inserts. You need to figure out which one would suit you more in terms of functionality and price.
I love Panas, I made great friends with Lakuchina, I cooked for two days in Visonte-600. I love them all. Panasonic is the most expensive, La Cucina and Viconte are much cheaper.

All multicooker with the functions you need. They all have steaming inserts.

The multi-cook Binaton does not have such an insert, neither does Landlife.

[dopleta]

dopleta
Binaton is two units in one.
LandLife is an electric pressure cooker.
In my Unit (e) - the steamer is a stainless steel grate. Small vegetables fail, such as dumplings, manti, cutlets cannot be cooked, I bought a silicone steamer.

Not great !!! Landochka has an insert for steam cooking, it is simply not included in the kit, but it can be purchased on the Easy Life website for 230 rubles. it seems. Whether she is dear or not, I don’t know.

This must be specially purchased, it is not included in the kit.

So it is not included in the kit! And where have you been before - ours Rina tortured, looking for a double boiler for LL!

I know, I have both Binaton, which successfully fulfills the role of a multicooker and bread maker, and Unit, which is considered a multicooker-pressure cooker.

[Rina]

why in the past tense? I still suffer without a steamer

In my Unit (e) - the steamer is a stainless steel grate. Small vegetables fail, such as dumplings, manti, cutlets cannot be cooked,

Strange, but in my unit aluminum with small holes. True, it was bought for a very long time, then it was still produced not in China, but in Austria.

[dopleta]

dopleta
My electric pressure cooker is 2.5 years old. Oh, how time flies.
And already an unsuccessful steamer option. I cool the bread perfectly on this wire rack.

And another clone appeared, Polaris 🔗

Many people liked the look of the multicooker. Now they are being released by those who did not even think about it before. Outwardly, it is very similar to Marusya.

As for the steaming insert - is it the same for all multicookers as for Panasonic? Or does it have legs too?
She indicated her location in her profile.

Now they are being released by those who did not even think about it before.

do not release, but buy from the Chinese while slapping their brand name on the face

I don't know about the legs, but I was pleasantly surprised when I saw that Panas's insert-steamer was coming to Lakuchina.

Hello, dear members of the forum, due to health I have to go on a diet for a year, consisting mainly of boiled-steamed vegetables, boiled-steamed fish / chicken / beef, cereals, rice ...
I looked into the section of all sorts of "brews" and my eyes fled, and even more thought on the tree. Initially I thought to buy a double boiler, then I saw that there are more modern and multifunctional devices. What tasks do I set for myself:
- I would like it to be tasty, since I don't like cooked-steam food since childhood
-cooking fish / beef / chicken without oil, that is, the possibility of frying, etc., respectively, are not interested
-the possibility of variations in the preparation of rice / buckwheat, i.e., for example, rice or buckwheat in the form of porridge, rice for sushi, loose buckwheat
- I love potatoes in any form
- I'm calm about baking, and you can't really do it
- delayed start? timer? heating? manual mode? apparently needed, although I don't know exactly how much
-function of the pressure cooker what are the advantages?
-In general, the sanity of the interface and programs is welcomed))
Thanks in advance to those who will answer, otherwise it is difficult for a man to understand this cookery
Thinking a little more, I was puzzled by the question, is there a CF that can fully bake bread in the same way as bread makers, or should I not bother with it?

Thanks for the answer. Yes, the choice is very diverse, but it is absolutely unclear what exactly to choose in my case. In principle, I am not focused on Brands. Regarding Coocoo, I agree that their devices are not bad, but the price is exorbitant. For the price of their younger model, you can take a couple of competitors and even if something breaks, then throw it out without regret. And I am silent about the price of the older model, for me it is absurd, in the sense that I am not that much of a fan, in fact, I need a device that meets my current needs in functionality.
So I don't really understand, do pressure cookers include a steamer function or not? As I already wrote above, it just seems to me that the boiling is a rather narrow-minded device, unlike a multicooker with a steamer function, especially since all these rather large multi-section steamers are simply useless to me)))
I read Binatone 2170 here: 🔗 , apparently you shouldn't put all your eggs in one basket)))

[melissa2010]

I read Binatone 2170 here: https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/fo...iewtopic.php?f=130&t=4536 , apparently you shouldn't put all your eggs in one basket)))

melissa2010 , the right decision!

Yes, the choice is very diverse, but it is absolutely unclear what exactly to choose in my case.

Choose a multicooker. pay attention to La Cucina Italiana (the price is very attractive) and for the new model Maruchi, which the girls have just started to use in St. Petersburg.

shl. I have a slow cooker, and a pressure cooker, and a double boiler. And believe me, I use each one almost every day.

(I don’t know about the assembly, I have to ask the owners which collects it, is it China)

Assembly-Korea

So I don't really understand, do pressure cookers include a steamer function or not?

The cuckoo has a special insert and a steaming function

Maruchi, at first glance, is nothing, though it is not clear which model to prefer 46 or 47. And is it worth paying for the "bells and whistles" so that you don't regret it later? And the Italian is her sister? Is there any difference in functionality? And by the way, what is this attractive price? For the price, the cookie doesn't really inspire me ...

[melissa2010]

melissa2010 , it is better to ask questions about specific models in the corresponding branches. Italian, in my opinion, cost 2000 rubles.

Thinking a little more, I was puzzled by the question, is there a CF that can fully bake bread in the same way as bread makers, or should I not bother with it?

Maybe you also need steam without crusts? then in a rice cooker (multicooker) you can bake this.

and in my rice cooker simple rice 1 glass is done for 20 minutes, not an hour.

Maruchi, at first glance, is nothing, though it is not clear which model to prefer 46 or 47. And is it worth paying for the "bells and whistles" so that you don't regret it later?

Yes, fellow countryman, Maruchi is the sister of the Italian La Kuchina. Differences: there is (supposedly) 3D heating (that is, the lid should also be warming up, and, thanks to this, there should be no condensation: well, you are a man, you understand about the "dew point". In reality, as it turned out, condensation is all there are, and a lot) and there are still two additional programs. I'm happy with my Kuchina, and I don't feel the need for these programs.One "but" - at the moment Kuchin is not in St. Petersburg, but there are several modifications of Maruchi, including quite inexpensive ones, take a look at the Electrocomfort website.

The cuckoo has a special insert and a steaming function

Many other inexpensive multicooker pressure cookers have this insert, for example, my Unit.

[melissa2010]

melissa2010 , it is better to ask questions about specific models in the corresponding branches. Italian, in my opinion, cost 2000 rubles.

Well, I still haven't decided on specific models, I asked Yandex, he claims that the Italian costs about 3500, which puts it on a par with competitors

Maybe you also need steam without crusts? then in a rice cooker (multicooker) you can bake this.

About bread, it’s me, apparently, got excited. after all, the main dietary dishes, and fresh bread is not particularly useful for me yet

Many other inexpensive multicooker pressure cookers have this insert.

Sorry, but I still haven't figured out if pressure cookers also work like steam boilers or do you need dancing with a tambourine? I would not like dancing

Well, I still haven't decided on specific models, I asked Yandex, he claims that the Italian costs about 3500, which puts it on a par with competitors

On the difference with competitors, see two (already three) posts above. I bought it in 1990, we have promotions in Domostroy, I can give you a phone number, call and find out if there will be another one.
