We would like to introduce to you the much-discussed-about Zojirushi Stainless Steel Food Jar! This is an excellent thermal food jar featuring vacuum insulation to keep food and beverages hot or cold for hours.
Let us tell you a secret: you can “cook” rice porridge in this food jar!
Without electricity.
Are you asking, “Really?”
Yes. When we are on the go travelling, or rushing for time to cook our little ones’ meals, this thermal food jar is a life-saver. We mommies and even daddies can prepare food for our little ones in advance before we are on the move.
Zojirushi Stainless Steel Food Jar comes with a tight-fitted lid set with a gasket to seal and minimize leaks and maximize heat retention. It’s very good for keeping hot meals, soups, oatmeal, cold desserts, etc.
General guideline
Below is a set of general guidelines about how to prepare rice porridge in a Zojirushi Stainless Steel Food Jar.
- Pre-heat: Fill up the empty food jar with BOILING water, close and tighten the lid set, and set aside for at least 2 minutes.
- Initial soaking: Discard the water used to pre-heat the food jar. Put in raw ingredients (rice/vegetables etc). Pour in BOILING water again, close and tighten the lid set. SHAKE the food jar for a while to distribute heat to the ingredients. After 5 minutes, discard the water again.
- “Cooking”: Finally, pour in BOILING water again, close and tighten the lid set, SHAKE, set aside and wait for a minimum of 2 hours, done.
Extra points to take note of to ensure success in your food preparation:
- Raw ingredients must be cut into small pieces.
- Water must be BOILING, not just hot.
- The food jar should be filled up to 80% full. Water should not exceed the waterline/grid in the food jar. Please keep to about 1 cm below the waterline/grid.
- Soak rice grains overnight or at least an hour (not compulsory but recommended).
- If you want to add raw meat, use boiling water to “soak” the meat separately (to kill germs) for 5 minutes, then drained it before putting it into the food jar with the rest of the ingredients.
