Customizing recipes to cook with the rice cooker enables you to prepare a full-course meal from a main dish to soup including boiled fish and baked food.

Rice for Freezing setting
A program to cook delicious rice for freezing is provided to meet the needs of people living alone, such as those who wish to freeze leftover rice or cook a large amount of rice at one time and freeze it. In order to prevent defrosted cooked rice from being pasty or hard, the rice is given a longer time to absorb water in this menu setting than in the White Rice setting, so that the cooked rice will not be pasty but plump to the core and the delicious flavor can be kept after the rice is frozen.
