The Everything Rice Cooker Cookbook

August 19th, 2010Announcement11 Comments

When I first started blogging on Rasa Malaysia 4+ years ago, there weren’t that many food bloggers back then, and Hui Leng Tay (AKA Tigerfish) of Teczcape: An Escape to Food is one of my very first blogging friends. We have become good friends over the years, even though we have only met once.

I am very happy to announce that her first cookbook—The Everything Rice Cooker Cookbook—is finally launched. Published by Adams Media, the book is part of the popular “The Everything” series. As the name suggests, the book is all about cooking with a rice cooker, with a whopping 300+ recipes using the magical electronic rice cooker. And the sweetest thing is that they are not all rice recipes because a rice cooker is so versatile that you can use it to make so many different things: soups, desserts, steaming, vegetables, pasta, seafood, and more…

If you are still debating if you should buy a rice cooker, I say go ahead. It’s probably one of the best investments you will ever made in the kitchen. What’s more, now you have a perfect cookbook to start expanding your cooking repertoire.

I would like to congratulate Hui Leng for launching this cookbook. To buy “The Everything Rice Cooker Cookbook”, please head over to:

  1. Amazon – US$10.85
  2. Barnes and Noble – US$11.48
  3. Borders – US$15.95

    Last year, through my sister-in-blog Jaden of Steamy Kitchen (her “Steamy Kitchen” Cookbook is shipping soon, so pre-order it now on Amazon!), I contributed a recipe to a new cookbook called Asian Cocktails. Authored by Holly Jenning and Christine Leblond and published by Tuttle, Asian Cocktails is a beautiful cookbook featuring creative drinks  inspired by the east… Other than drinks,…

    Sushi Rice Recipe

    How to make sushi rice? This is probably one of the most fundamental questions when it comes to Japanese cuisine, thanks to the increasing popularity of sushi in the world. Home cooks who are interested in Japanese cuisine will ultimately want to learn how to make perfect sushi rice—the vinegared rice which is the building block of all sorts of…

    Yam Rice (芋头饭)

    Yam or taro is a root vegetable that I love to eat. There are quite many ways to make yam (taro)—sweet as in Bubur Cha Cha, sweet yam paste (or nee), or savory as in Yam Rice. My late parents loved Yam Rice and I am glad that I’d acquired the liking for this dish. In my family, we almost…

    Wow, I didn’t know what you can make other stuff using a rice cooker. That’s interesting. Will check it out. What brand of rice cooker do you recommend?

      Personally, I stick to Japanese brands such as Panasonic. And with a basic conventional rice cooker (not fuzzy logic), you can really do more with your rice cooker.

    I’m going to check if this book is available over here…as it should be because everyone here owns a rice cooker! I so need this! I’d love to make more use of my rice cooker (although it already takes quite a beating with all the rice we eat!) :)

  6. Tigerfish: do you talk about doing sous vide in a rice cooker?

    Bee: how nice of you to highlight Tigerfish’s cookbook! I’d like to get my hands on a copy.

    By the way, House of Annie has moved to its own domain, http://www.houseofannie.com. I’d appreciate it if you changed the link in your blogroll to point to the new site instead of http://chezannies.blogspot.com. Thanks!

      Not really. Most are quick-cooking, not under any sort of vacuum. However, there are some recipes that use the concept of “slow-cooker” cooking – esp for those dishes that require slow simmering or braising.
