To fully utilize the waste heat of electric rice cookers and ovens, for example, when cooking rice with an electric rice cooker, turn off the power for 7-8 minutes after the pot boils, and then turn it back on. When baking peanuts with an electric oven, turn off the power 5-6 minutes in advance before opening the box and removing it.
When choosing an electric rice cooker, its power should be determined based on the number of household members and economic conditions. Practice has shown that cooking 1kg of rice in a 500W rice cooker takes 30 minutes and consumes 0.27kWh of electricity, while using a 700W rice cooker takes about 20 minutes and consumes only 0.23kWh of electricity.
When cooking rice, when the pot is boiling, lift the button to cut off the power. Utilize the residual heat of the electric heating plate, wait for a few minutes, and then press the button again. After the rice is cooked, the electric rice cooker will automatically cut off the power. To reduce the wear and tear of the feeding contact points, the method of unplugging or plugging in the power plug can also be used. Cover the pot with a towel to reduce heat loss. When cooking noodles, put the noodles in after the water boils, boil for 3-5 minutes, disconnect the power, and keep warm for a few minutes; After using the rice cooker, be sure to unplug the power plug. If you don't unplug it, it will enter the insulation state, which will waste electricity and prolong its service life. If there are stains on the surface of the electric heating plate and the bottom of the inner pot, they should be wiped clean or lightly polished with fine sandpaper to avoid affecting heat transfer efficiency and wasting electricity. It is best to use a fixed heat rice cooker as it consumes less electricity than a insulated rice cooker.
