Japanese Engineering at its finest
By Patrick Goetz
I've always considered it a point of culinary pride to cook rice by hand in a normal cooking pot. That is until I ended up with a 2-year-old who is a very picky eater, with rice one of the items on her "approved" list. Suddenly making rice went from a couple of times a month event to a couple of times a week. It was time to simplify the process of making rice. I looked at various models, read all the reviews on amazon and opted for the $105 rice cooker rather than the $20 one. I have not been disappointed. Every detail of this device is carefully thought out right down to the little plastic rice spoon holder on the side of the pot. Although purchased for making rice, I was delighted to discover that you can cook virtually any grain to good effect. So far I've made white rice, brown rice, black rice, red rice, quinoa, and barley. I even tried confusing it by cooking mixed rice, but this came out perfectly as well. Prior to cooking black "forbidden" rice in the Tiger, I had no idea that it didn't always turn out mushy and pasty. The result produced by the rice cooker was an entirely different matter; suffice it to say that everyone became an instant black rice enthusiast.And the complexity of the device is astounding: it has exactly one button. You plug it in, add your grain and the appropriate amount of water, close the lid, and turn it on. That's it. It turns itself off (well, to the "warm" setting) when the grain is cooked. The only trick is keeping the lid closed for the appropriate number of minutes after cooking so that the grain can steam properly. The simple approach is to not worry about it and just give yourself plenty of time to let the rice steam (10-15 minutes is always adequate). Cleanup is a snap. I frequently make rice and have the pot cleaned up and put away minutes later.My one confusion was with what "5.5c" means. Did this refer to the dry or cooked grain capacity? The answer is cooked. You can safely cook about 2 cups (dry) of brown rice or barley or 2.5 to maybe 3 cups of dry white rice at a time. It's not a good idea to overfill the cooker; I've done this and it results in a bit of a mess. This is by far the best kitchen gadget I've purchased in a long time -- highly recommended.

By Idreece Ahmad
Our Tiger JNP - 1000, 5 cup rice cooker was purchased sometime in mid 1998 and we borrowed it shortly afterwards when we got stationed overseas. The military family who sponsored us and helped us settle in, let us eventually buy it from them because it was the first time we had ever used a rice cooker and we simply fell in love with it. It was the most simple to operate and clean up kitchen appliance I had ever seen, and it cooked perfect rice each time. Because of this wonderful gadget, our staple food shifted from bread to rice and we became major rice consuming family, putting this Tiger to work almost every day. 14 years on, my family is still enjoying perfectly cooked rice, as it has over the years, as well as countless successful experiments involving rice and various other ingredients. I can safely say this old rice cooker has never let me down and performed perfectly every single time. I am here because I wanted to see if I ever needed to replace it would I be able to find the same very rice cooker. Mine is made in Japan (for an American market, I think), but I am not sure if the ones being sold today are made in Japan or elsewhere. Regardless, I will purchase another Tiger rice cooker in a heartbeat.

By J. Tran
Tiger makes the best rice cookers. I've gone through a few rice cookers and they were all pretty terrible with either quality of the product itself or the cooked rice. Tiger is perfect, I'll never purchase any other brand again.
