I love risotto but I DO NOT like the CONSTANT attention needed for sautéing and stirring for over 20 minutes. After the veggie prep, Japanese Takikomi Gohan is cooked in the rice cooker WITHOUT ANY ADDITIONAL ATTENTION, and then keeps the rice warm until dinnertime. Make a side salad or play with your kids. A rice cooker doesn't heat up the whole kitchen in the summertime either. <br /> <br />Japanese takikomi gohan uses no oil or cheese so it is great for those who are lactose-intolerant. I have also given some suggestions if you want a more Western flavor profile...
