Brilio.net - As one of the staple foods, rice has become a mandatory meal at every meal for some Indonesian people. In addition to being cooked manually with a stove, cooking rice using a rice cooker is now widely chosen by the public.

Although it is considered more practical, there are times when the condition of the rice cooker becomes less friendly. For example, boiling water when cooking rice comes out through the steam exhaust hole. If left alone, the overflowing rice water risks leaving crust stains, you know.
