Who sleeps while cooking rice?

[–] Natanox@discuss.tchncs.de 60 points 2 months ago (14 children)

I think some rice cookers popular in Asia do have features to keep it warm, activate at a certain time etc. Perhaps you want cooked rice for breakfast (perhaps already cooled down but still moist and fluffy), or have it prepared so you can make Sushi later while taking a nap. Can definitely see the usecase in a food culture with lots of rice.
