Electric cooker and control method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides an electric cooker and a control method thereof. The control method of the electric cooker comprises the steps that an inner pot is heated, water is heated to reach the first preset temperature, and when kept at the first preset temperature for a first preset period of time, the water is heated to be boiling; when the water is kept at the boiling state for a second preset period of time, heating is stopped, and a steamer and rice soup inside the inner pot are separated; when separation is performed for a third preset period of time or the rice soup is cooled to reach the second preset temperature, the inner pot is continuously heated for a fourth preset period of time, and rice in the steamer is steamed to be cooked by means of steam generated by heating. According to the control method of the electric cooker, the water is kept at the first preset temperature for the first preset period of time, the steamer and the rice soup inside the inner pot are separated, the rice is steamed to be cooked by means of steam generated by heating, the rice absorbs water sufficiently, rice gelatinization is facilitated, and starch, sugar and other ingredients in the rice are dissolved into the water so that steamed rice with low sugar and good taste can be obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of household cooking, and more specifically, relates to a method for controlling an electric cooker and an electric cooker. Background technique [0002] When the existing electric cooker cooks rice, the rice and water are put together in the inner pot for heating. After the rice is cooked, the rice has a high sugar content, which is not suitable for diabetics or obese patients. Moreover, there are also problems such as poor conversion of rice starch, insufficient gelatinization of rice, and hard taste of cooked rice. Contents of the invention [0003] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. [0004] For this reason, the object of one aspect of the present invention is to provide a control method for an electric rice cooker, which can ensure that the rice can fully absorb water, the rice is fully gelatinized, and the starch in the rice can be better conv...
