The invention of the rice cooker is without a doubt a remarkable innovation as it allows us to save time, cook rice quickly and efficiently, and ensures the rice is cooked perfectly.
However, have you ever noticed that every rice cooker comes with a rice scoop? And what’s even more interesting is that these scoops have tiny dots on their surface.
Can you guess the purpose of those small dots on the scoop? Are they there to prevent the rice from sticking? If you think so, you’re mistaken. The truth behind it will surprise you.
If you’re someone who frequently cooks rice, you will notice that even with the non-stick coating on the rice cooker, rice grains still tend to stick to the sides of the pot. This is especially true when using sticky rice or leaving rice overnight.
As the rice cools down, these grains will stick to the pot. To clean the pot, you would usually soak it in water and wait for the rice grains to loosen before scrubbing with a sponge. However, using a soft sponge may not remove all the stuck rice grains, while using a metal scrub may damage the non-stick coating.
This is where the tiny dots on the rice scoop come into play. Pour some water into the pot to soften the rice, then use the side with the dots to gently scrub the stuck grains on the pot.
These dots are harder than a soft sponge but not as abrasive as a metal scrub, so they won’t damage the pot. Just a gentle scrubbing is enough to remove the stuck rice. Finally, use a soft sponge to clean the rice cooker.
Now, the inner pot of your rice cooker will be completely clean without any damage to the non-stick coating. Try it out to keep your rice cooker clean, moms!
