What is the difference between Slow cooker and Rice cooker?
Use a dutch oven in the oven and you would get the same result, it would heat all around like the slow cooker. Use it on top of the stove and it's only hot on the bottom and would tend to stick and scorch. Also, the slow cooker is not going to heat up the kitchen like using the oven will.
Who invents the rice cooker?
The idea of having a rice cooker began in 1920 but they were not very effective. They had to be monitored constantly. In 1956, Toshiba came up with an effective rice cooker. It was easy to use and did not require constant monitoring. Today's rice cookers are great as we simply push the cook button and let it do its thing.Many rice products require the same cooking instructions but it is always valuable to read the directions for each product you put in the rice cooker. Here is a good recipe for cooking rice pasta in the rice cooker.2 1/2 cups of warm water1 tbsp. of olive oil in the cooker.1 cup of rice pasta in the cookerPlace the warm water and olive oil in the cooker. It is recommended to use a type of oil when cooking pasta. Butter, cooking oil or any other type of oil would be okay. The idea is to have some kind of oil substance so the pasta will not stick together. Add the pasta and stir in the warm water. Turn on the rice cooker. Pasta may require more water to complete cooking, if this is the case then add more water and start the cooking cycle one more time. Drain pasta when it is finished, drain and serve.After the pasta is finished cooking remove all the pasta and unplug the cooker. After the cooker has cooled remove the inner pot and submerge in some hot soapy water. Do not submerge the exterior of the cooker in water. Take a damp cloth and wipe down the lid and the surface of the cooker. Do not spray cleaner directly on the external part of the cooker. Cleaners contain poisons and they may get inside the cooker. If there is any rice or food on the cookers hot plate remove this by using a light sandpaper material. Do not use scouring powder or an abrasive sponge as a cleaner for the cooker. Be gentle when using these as you do not want to cause scratches on the hot plate.Remember these tips for the rice cookers: clean the cooker after each use, do not submerge the external cooker in water, do not use spray cleaners on the external cooker, and do not use abrasive cleaners.If the rice cooker is cleaned after each use there should not be a problem or use for abrasive cleaners.

Are the cooking times and temperatures in a halogen cooker the same?
They should be. However all ovens vary slightly (which is a nuisance), so even if your oven is exactly as specified in the recipe, it's worth checking what you're cooking before the end of the cooking time, just in case it's about to burn.
Are crockpot recipes compatible for use with a slow cooker?

What is the difference between a halogen cooker and a convection cooker?
A halogen cooker is the same thing as an electric stove and a convection cooker uses a circulating current of hot air to cook foods.
Why is it easier to cook in a pressure cooker?
The universal gas law states that (pressure * volume/temperature) of a gas is a constant. Hence, if the volume stays the same (as in a pressure cooker), the air in the cooker can increase in temperature beyond the boiling point of water as pressure builds up over the normal atmospheric pressure. A higher temperature means faster cooking. The above is a very simplistic view of the physics involved.
How do you cook a top round roast in a pressure cooker?
Cooking in a pressure cooker cuts your cooking time down to about a third. In other words, if you would normally cook a roast for 3 hours it's only going to take 1 but keep in mind that were talking really high temperatures here. The pressure at which you cook the meat at will also cause the time to vary, as will as the fact that top round roasts have very little fat content, quite the opposite of a chuck roast. I usually cook a 3 lb top round roast for about an hour. The process is basically the same as what you would normally cook a top round roast at except for a few added steps. Heat up your pressure cooker and add about 2 to 3 tablespoons oil. Cut your roast into four equal parts, salt and pepper each piece and then brown on all sides. Remove meat from cooker and add about 1 cup beef broth along with 3/4 cup Italian salad dressing. If your presser cooker has a lift pan to keep the meat off of the bottom of the pan while cooking, insert it at this time and cover. Cook for about 1 hour. If you would like to include potatoes and carrots with this meal, have your potatoes and carrots cut, seasoned and ready to go once the roast is done cooking. When the roast is done cooking, take the entire cooker (lid still on!) over to the sink and run cold water over it. This will very quickly bring the internal pressure down to normal allowing you to open the cooker and add your vegetables (unless your roast is completely falling apart, leave the roast in the cooker and add vegetables on top, other wise remove the meat and keep covered and warm). Return cooker to the stove top, replace lid and bring the pressure back up. Once the pressure is where you want it cook for an additional 20 minutes.
How do you cook tamales in a pressure cooker?
Pressure cookers can be dangerous. You have to make sure the seal (gasket) is in good condition and that the valve is working if you are using one you got secondhand. There should be instruction manuals for many pressure cookers on the Internet.Basically pressure cookers build up heat because they are sealed so well. They cook food much faster than a normal pot - You can cook a roast in about 20 minutes. They are also used frequently in canning veggies and other nonacidic foods.There is a pressure gauge on the top. You have to let the pressure go down before opening the pot! Please don't use one until you know what you are doing or your least problem will be a huge mess.First inspect the pressure cooker tharoughly and ensure that there are no damages especially to the gasket and see that it is clean.Next, you also need to ensure that the vent pipe is open and clear for pressure cooker with weighted pressure regulator. Check recipe for specific cooking method and cooking time. If your recipe requires a rack place it to the bottom of the cooker.Add a 1/2 cup water to pot if you're using a cooker that has a weighted system. Add 1 cup for pressure cooker that uses valve system. This should be sufficient for 20 minutes of cooking time.Place the food on rack.With the weighted system cooker remove the regulator then close and secure the lid. The cover handle should be parallel to the body handle. Place the cooker on heat.Once the steam begins to exit the vent pipe, replace the regulator. The weight on top the lid will begin to rock once the cooker reaches cooking pressure.The valve system cooker has markings on the cooker that indicate the pressure levels. Once the indicator is at 15 PSI the cooker is at the standard cooking pressure.Now, lower the heat once the cooker is at the cooking pressure in order to maintain the pressure. Comeback and chek and adjust the heat setting periodically.Use the timer to time the recipe.Once the required time is passed, you can turn off the heat.Next, you need to release the pressure inside by allowing it to reduce on its own.Once the pressure is released the lid can be opened after the removing the regulator.Hope this helps.
Does asparagus water give you a scalding feeling when you touch it?
I think it does. When you touch the inside of the asparagus you get a feeling the same when you touch a cooking rice cooker's top. I've never touched it before. This is my conclusion. I'm 9 years old.
Are electric skillets the same as electric cookers?
Both electric skilles and electric cookers operate on the same type of cooking element but the utensil itself is different. However, a electric skillet is the same utensil as a skillet but uses the electric element to heat the food and the electric cooker is similar but it is more in the shape of a pan.
