Our New Slow Cooker

The brown rice grains are really hard to cook to the mashy texture like white rice. And, it was a chore to cook Ian's porridge over a stove fire. Hence, we took home the spare slow cooker from my Mom's place.



We tried cooking the brown rice in it for 3 hours, and to our disappointment, the consistency was not what we wanted. Within the 3 hours, we also added water a few times because the water dried up.

We tried cooking white rice in it for 3 hours, and the consistency was slightly more satisfying. I guess brown rice just has to be milled.

But with this new kitchen aid, cooking porridge is much easier.
