象印 ZOJIRUSHI 小容量IH炊飯ジャー 3合炊き NP-GK05-XT
Product Description
The "Gouetsu Hot Boiling IH" rice cooker is designed to bring out the best flavor in rice by cooking it over consistently high heat. This method ensures that the rice is cooked thoroughly, resulting in fluffy, delicious rice that is flavorful to the core.
Product Specification
- High heat cooking technology for optimal flavor extraction. - Special "Mature Cooking" mode for enhanced rice sweetness and texture. - Designed to promote even cooking and water absorption for fluffy results.
Usage
The "Mature Cooking" mode is ideal for white rice. It allows the rice to soak in water for an extended period, ensuring that water is absorbed deeply into the core of each grain. This process enhances the alpha-formation of the rice, resulting in a fluffier texture and a sweeter taste.
Additional Information
Studies conducted by the Tokyo University of Agriculture have shown that the "Mature Cooking" mode increases the amount of dissolved reducing sugar, which contributes to the sweetness of the rice. The amount of eluted reducing sugar is 0.194mg/g when using the "Mature Cooking" menu, compared to 0.084mg/g when using the standard "White Rice" menu, based on internal standards.
