Makes perfect sense. You use a rice cooker?

Harry, what the phuque is a rice cooker????

A kitchen electrical pot in which you place measured amounts of rice and
water. It steams the rice until it is perfectly cooked. Mine is about the
size of a two quart pot, and it has a glass cover. They're inexpensive.
They're also called "rice steamers."

Here's one:

Some oriental families I know have very large and somehow boxlike rice
cookers. Chinese restaurants also use the bigger units.

I thought a pot with a lid did just fine for the past 30 years. I guess I
was wrong. :-)
