UNPOLISHED RICE SPROUTING/RICE COOKING CONTROL DEVICE AND METHOD FOR ELECTRIC PRESSURE RICE COOKER AND WARMER

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electric pressure rice cooker and warmer capable of not only sprouting unpolished rice to produce sprouting unpolished rice but also cooking the sprouting unpolished rice to obtain boiled sprouting unpolished rice. PSOLUTION: The electric pressure rice cooker and warmer has a heater adjusted in operation to heat an inner pot and to hold the internal temperature of the inner pot to a temperature, right for sprouting, between a maximum unpolished rice sprouting temperature TM and a minimum unpolished rice sprouting temperature Tm during an unpolished rice sprouting process, and a steam pressure discharge valve intercepting power supplied to the heater when the internal temperature of the pot reaches the maximum unpolished rice sprouting temperature TM and supplying power to the heater when the internal temperature of the inner pot drops to the minimum unpolished sprouting temperature Tm, and adjusted to be open to supply oxygen into the pot during the unpolished rice sprouting process. After the unpolished rice sprouting process, a dipping process and a heating process are performed, and then a steaming process is performed. PCOPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
