New Xiaomi MIJIA Smart Rice Cooker 3L
This new version of the most famous rice cooker in the world once again offers a 3 liter tank in which to be able to introduce water and rice to obtain enough quantity (10 individual servings), and the new technology released in this model will prevent you from overdoing it with cooking. On the one hand, it has the new IH Surround technology, which is responsible for heating the container evenly thanks to a new pressure valve of spherical design. While, on the other hand, the container has a thickness of 3 millimeters that, together with a quality non-stick coating, will prevent the rice from sticking.
Now with NFC
The most technological touch of this new version is the NFC connectivity, which will simply serve to link your Smartphone with the rice cooker in a practical and simple way. Thus, we can take control of the device from our mobile, control the execution time and define the type of cooking we want to perform.
Another of the smart functions will be the possibility of controlling it through voice commands, however, for now it seems that it is only compatible with the Xiaomi’s own voice assistant, XiaoAI, so we don’t know if it will be updated to be compatible with Alexa and other assistants as well.

Everyone who has tried a rice cooker agrees that it is a magnificent invention. Depending on the type of rice you want to make, you can achieve spectacular results by leaving the grain at a perfect point, especially if you are interested in making sushi at home.
