A top of the line commercial rice cooker is a must if you own a restaurant that specializes in sushi or paella or other rice based menu items. Below are some pointers to follow when choosing the best commercial rice cookers.

On/Off commercial cooker

We know that the reliable on/off commercial cooker cooks nice rice, automatically turning off when the rice is cooked. These commercial cookers do not cost you much. So if you’re tight on budget, I say consider this type of commercial rice cooker.

Some on/off rice cookers have warming features. If you’re willing to shell out some extra cash, consider buying one with this feature. This commercial cooker is a must if you have a food business.

An on/off commercial rice cooker can keep your favorite rice warm for around 12 hours. So it is definitely worth your investment.

Fuzzy Logic commercial rice cooker

Do you need a commercial rice cooker sporting Fuzzy Logic technology? You will need one if you are looking for a more advanced commercial cooker; such cooker has high-end settings for porridge, soup, steamer, brown rice, as well as rice texture (hard or soft). This type of commercial cooker is nice, but they are more expensive compared to an on/off rice cooker.

Induction heating system

High-end commercial rice cookers often feature induction heating. The rice cooker’s induction heating technology enables you to make the perfect rice.

Commercial cookers that have this system feature accurate temperature sensing processes. Heat radiates from below and is also distributed evenly throughout the entire pan.

Design

If you are very picky about the style of your commercial rice cooker, buy one that matches your restaurant design perfectly well. Commercial rice cookers available on the market today come in different shapes and colors. Some look very traditional, while others look out-of-this-world.

Other considerations

Make sure your commercial cooker has easy to clean parts. A cooker with a removable and dishwasher-safe bowl makes the job much easier and quicker. Go for commercial rice cookers that have nonstick bowls.
