How to Clean the Inside of an Electric Rice Cooker

Whether you are cooking rice for a crowd or for an intimate meal for one, an electric rice cooker is a handy appliance that is designed to cook rice perfectly every time. Essentially, the apparatus carefully steams the rice until it is cooked through, automatically ending the cooking process. This ensures the grain is not under or overcooked. While the cookers create perfect rice, they do require some cleanup afterward.
