Slow Cooker as a RICE COOKER?!?!?

YAY! I found this website in my qwest to use my slow cooker as a pressure cooker, cause I always burn my rice and beans. I want a pressure cooker, but no funds right now...So...i'll let you know when I try THIS....

--1T butter
--1 cup white basmati rice (I'm listing this kind because that is what I used. I would imagine that any kind of white or brown rice would work, but I haven't actually tried any other out yet.)
--2 cups water
--pinch of salt


The Directions:

--rub butter on the inside of your crockpot stoneware
--put in rice
--stir in water and salt
--cover and cook on high for 2-3 hours, checking every 45 minutes or so.

I cooked the above batch for 2 hours, 15 minutes and checked on it twice.


The Verdict:

Fluffy, lovely rice. I'm interested in trying this with larger quantities of rice and with different varieties.

THANKS Crockpot 365!!
