it's a radio! no, it's a rice cooker!

After one year, our coventional rice cooker went kaput so we had to buy a new one. We did, yesterday, and we chose this nifty model from Philips. Halata ba kung anong favorite brand ko? Hehe.

The Philips HD4751 rice cooker has artificial intelligence! Haha. Nagbibiruan nga kami ni B kagabi na baka maglakad at magsalita na lang bigla ang aming new household gadget. We could've bought a conventional rice cooker but we chose this because it had a brown rice cooking function. Yun ang naging deciding factor. Aside from brown rice, it can cook sushi and glutinous rice, congee, soups and can even be used for baking cake! Astig. I don't think I'm going to bake something in it though. I'd rather use a convection oven for that.

Other nice-to-have features of this rice cooker are the timer which allows you to set when the rice should be ready; the LCD clock; a dedicated program for cooking small portions, and a reheat function. Meron din siyang surround sound at pwede kabitan ng earphones at patugtugan ng CD. Hehe, joke lang. Kamukha kasi ng Philips CD player ko sa Pinas.
