Salton RA7 7-Cup Rice Cooker
Problem for Salton RA7 7-Cup Rice Cooker

Need tips on using Salton Rice Cooker




By Chandler - usenet poster

" "
I recently bought a 7 cup Salton rice cooker at a yard sale and it came without
the paddle and measuring cup.  The first time I made rice the other day I used
one cup rice to one cup water as the instruction book indicated, but the rice
stuck to the bottom.  So, tonight I used 2 cups water to one cup rice, but this
time I added the flavoring packet that came w/ the rice.  I also added two
potstickers to the mix and it turned out very good, however, rice still sticks
to the bottom of the cooker.  Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong
and how I can prevent sticking.  I feel I put in enough water, so I'm baffled
as to what I'm doing wrong.  Thanks for any feedback.  Email is fine, too.

Chandler, a bunch of us would like a copy of the instruction booklet. Can you scan it and upload it? Or perhaps post the instructions by typing?

hi amanda!

it's not your measurements!!!  =)(although i suggest that
you use a little bit more water than the rice...how much?  
the chef's measurements...koreans never...rarely measure)
salton...i have seen that brand before...it sticks because
of the cooker...a long time ago...when rice was made over
the fire...we used to take the crusted bottom part and add
barley tea...boil it... and have the rice with the
water...people now crave that old time stuff...it's
good...even tastes go in cycles...and the crusted bottom
part tastes even better when you can scrape it off...fry it
in oil...and add sugar...BELIEVE IT OR NOT...both of these
products from the scraps are packaged and sold nowadays
whereas in the old days...it was just a way to eat the food
without wasting it...

am i being to loquacious?  

if you want a good rice cooker that most asians use...buy a
zojirushi...or tiger...nonstick...although it costs around
100 dollars...it will be worth your money...

Thais have recipes for using this crust as well. And I have to admit all
of them, including yours have sounded quite delectable.

Absolutely not. Thank you very much for this post.

I have a Zojirushi, but it's not nonstick. I've never been upset by the
crust, just assumed that was normal operation.

Our local Fry's Electronics (if you're in CA) carries about a dozen rice

-regards cookers in the nonstick variety ranging in price from $40 to
$140.

I too have a Salton. I like mine. I did have the problem with the rice
burning. So what I do now is when the unit switches to the keep warm cycle I
add a couple of tablespoons of water to the rice, cover and let sit for 10
to 15 minutes. This helps keep the rice from burning as bad. It also helps
loosen the rice from the bottom so you end up with more.
