The only kitchen appliance worthy of my architect’s clutter-free counter? The Zojirushi Induction Heat rice cooker.

There are rice cookers, and then there are rice cookers. When the Zojirushi Induction Heat rice cooker first came out about five years ago, a friend of mine had her husband bring one back from his Hong Kong business trip. Fortunately, I have a loyal brother who lives in Hong Kong and is not inclined to deny the wishes of his older sister, so on his next trip to London the rice cooker was mine.
