cook rice! I usually make so much that it boils over and makes a mess all over the stove. But, the other day I was making rice for a dinner for Shawn. I thought I smelled something burning, but it was hard to tell because the other thing I was cooking was really garlicky so that was all I could smell. So, I just let the rice "cook". For 15 more minutes... Turns out I was right, and there was something burning. It was the rice. I took the lid off and it was black all the way through. Shawn immediately said, "Well, I think you ruined that pan!" I was super bummed because I love that pan and use it all the time. I still don't know if I ruined it or not. I scrubbed it a lot, but I'm going to give it a round or two in the dishwasher and see if that does the trick. I think I need a rice cooker...Friday, July 18, 2008

Carm,
I can't took rice either but I love my rice cooker because it does a wonderful job cooking it. Just buy a rice cooker they only cost like 30 bucks and you put the rice and water in and leave it there and when you come back it is ready!!! Wonderful.
Seriously, a rice cooker does wonders. I have no idea how people cook rice without one.
I LOVE my rice cooker. It's an Aroma, got it at Costco. Don't know how to cook rice without it.
I have to agree with everyone, rice cookers are the way to go, perfect every time. Though mine just broke so I have gone back to the stove and have actually had some success for the first time in my life. But I am planning on buying another rice cooker!
