Large Rice Cooker: Sanyo ECJ-HC100S
The Sanyo ECJ-HC100S is one of a long list of Japanese rice cookers that is sold in the United States today. If you are having trouble deciding which model you should get then this review may help you with your selection. I am not sure whether this specific model will suit all of you but I am sure you will find its versatility rather impressive.
When we take a look at the size of this machine we can see that it falls into the large rice cooker category. It is a 10 cup device. Therefore the maximum amount of uncooked rice that it can prepare is 1800ml. One cup being 180ml. If you made this maximum amount you would end up with enough rice to feed about sixteen people. So you have to ask yourself if you really need a machine that is this big. It may well be a good choice if you have a particularly large family or if you often cater for more than just a few people.
What I think is nice about this machine is that it can do much more than just make rice. I would say that if you want a machine that specializes in this then you might be better off with a Zojirushi rice cooker. On the other hand, if you think that you will use some or all of the features that the Sanyo ECJ-HC100S offers then it may well be a wise purchase.
When we look at the other things that it can do we see that it has a special slow cooker pot. It also comes with a steamer tray that fits inside the machine to make really healthy vegetables. You can even use this machine to prepare your own tofu. So even though it is sold as a rice cooker, it can do so much more.
