Long-time heat preservation, heat preservation of cold rice, heat preservation with serving spatula in pot and repeated long-time heat preservation. Heat preservation is suitable for coarse food grain rice, polished rice and germinant brown rice. However, compared with white rice, their scent or color can be easily changed. It is recommended to use up quickly or store in refrigerator. Whether there is dirt on detachable inner lid, steam valve and body? Especially for the detachable inner lid and steam valve, please take off to clean after cooking every time, and wipe off water.
