How to choose a good inner pot?

Tasty and fluffy rice depends a lot on the heat. In addition to high heat, the inner pot is very critical. The capacity of heat conduction and retention depends a lot on the pot materials, layers and design, and thus affecting the taste of rice.

Why good capacity of heat conduction and retention

With a good heat conduction, the heat is spread more evenly, the texture will be more consistent. And good heat retention can perform the IH better, rice is fluffier after cooking with high heat. Also, the detailed design (e.g. the convex design of the inner pot) will change the circulation and facilitate heat conduction.

In short, the IH technology and a good quality inner pot are indispensable and can complement each other. When you are choosing a rice cooker next time, you may consider the above criteria and get your ideal rice cooker!
