An electric rice cooker is a kitchen appliance designed to simplify the process of cooking rice. It consists of a metal or non-stick inner pot, an outer shell, and a heating element. The user adds the desired amount of rice and water to the inner pot, and the cooker automatically regulates the cooking process. The heating element heats the pot, bringing the water to a boil and then reducing the heat to a simmer to cook the rice evenly. Once the rice is cooked, the cooker switches to a keep warm mode, maintaining the rice at an optimal temperature until it is ready to be served. Electric rice cookers eliminate the need for constant monitoring and provide consistent and fluffy rice with minimal effort.
