Rice Cooker Plus By dizzyduck on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
Are you kitchen impaired? Scared of skillets, frightened by fricassee? Does the thought of getting a balanced meal on the table give you the shivers? When you go to one of those gourmet kitchen parties, do you look at the gadgets and wonder if they are really for the kitchen or instruments of torture. If so, I have a product for you. The Pampered Chef Rice Cooker Plus.
For the life of me, I have never been able to make a decent pot of rice. It is either a big gooey clump or hard and undercooked. That is, until I attended a Pampered Chef party given by a co-worker. I had resolved to buy a pizza cutter (I know how to use that) but came out with an order placed for The Rice Cooker Plus. Who knew that cooking anything could be so easy. Perfect rice in your microwave! What could be easier than that.
You just measure out the rice, dump it in, measure out the water, dump it in, put the double-lid on, set your microwave for twenty minutes and forget it. While your rice cooks away, you can fix one of those frozen stir fry packages in the wok and your family will think you have become a kitchen goddess. Perfect rice everytime. Not sticky, clumpy, watery or hard—perfect.
It will not boil over and dirty up your microwave, is dishwasher safe, will not stain, has a 3 quart capacity, and carries a two year extended warranty. What could be better? The only thing is—when it comes out of the microwave it is HOT! Use your hot pads and open it away from you so you don't get a steam burn.
So next time you are invited to a Pampered Chef party and don't know what to buy, think about giving the Rice Cooker Plus a try. I'm glad I did.

I'd love this for nights when I'm running late and have to throw dinner together quick. Or when it is just too hot to cook rice on the stove. I have the Pampered Chef Clay oblong bakers and love them! They clean up so quickly and cook so well. Quick top of the stove fool proof rice recipe. Bring 4 C of water a good pinch of salt and a drop of oil to a full boil. Throw in 2C rice, cover, lower heat to very low and cook for 10-15 minutes.
This sounds like a great product. I need one. Thanks for the information.
I love PC, but have never tried this...I just may now!
I've started using Minute Rice for some dishes it seems to cook up prettier than long grain. lol
LOL - you have described me in my kitchen! I am looking for a good rice cooker and this one may just fit the bill! I have the pizza cutter from Pampered Chef as well - works like a charm!
This sounds really cool but I haven't been to a pampered chef party in a while so I'll have to check around as this sounds like a perfect rice cooker. Here's my secret when I need rice: i stop by the chinese restaurant down from my office and get a quart of plain white rice, very cheap and it's ready to go with anything i want to have it with, usually something that been in the slow cooker all day. I know, very lazy of me :O)
I haven't tried any pampered chef stuff, sounds like this is a good item though. We eat rice often so maybe I should check this out.
I had no idea pampered chef made a rice cooker. I love it this is a great product at a great price.
I love your sense of humor, and this sounds like a fail-proof rice cooker!
I just can't see having a separate appliance to cook rice, but I have several friends who just swear by them, and use them a lot. To each his own! They do a nice job with rice., I'll give them that!
