Overview
The Hario XRCP-1 is a heat resistant glass rice cooker for the microwave, sized for half to one serving of rice at a time. It is built from borosilicate glass and silicone rather than plastic, letting you watch the rice cook and avoid picking up plastic odor in the food.
- Borosilicate glass pot and lid
- Sized for 0.5 to 1 serving of rice
- Includes 5 recipe suggestions
- No plastic in direct contact with rice
Who it's for
Suits someone living alone who wants a small batch of rice without dirtying a full size cooker, and who does not mind supervising a microwave cycle. Not a fit for anyone cooking for more than one or two people or wanting a hands off electric appliance.
Pros and cons
- Heat resistant glass instead of plastic in contact with food
- Lets you see the rice cooking
- Compact size fits single servings
- Includes recipe ideas beyond plain rice
- Silicone lid seal can cause boiling over until removed
- Center of the pot can cook unevenly at larger fill levels
- Only sized for about one serving
Performance notes
Because it relies on microwave steam pressure rather than a heating element, cook time and evenness depend on your microwave. One reviewer found rice in the center of the pot cooked unevenly, going hard while the rest finished properly, and adding water to compensate caused overflow. Removing the silicone ring around the lid resolved boiling over for at least one long term user.
