[0026] A low-starch rice soup separation electric rice cooker comprises an upper pot body 1 and a lower pot body 2. The upper pot body 1 is detachably mounted on the top of the lower pot body 2. A circular water separation area is arranged at the bottom center of the upper pot body 1. The water separation area is provided with a plurality of water separation holes 4. The size of the water separation holes 4 is smaller than the size of rice to prevent rice from falling into the water separation holes 4 and causing blockage. A water vapor circulation conduit member 5 is arranged on the bottom surface of the upper pot body 1. The water vapor circulation conduit member 5 is arranged in the vertical direction. The upper end of the water vapor circulation conduit member 5 is connected to the water separation area, and the water vapor circulation conduit member 5 extends downward into the lower pot body 2. A plurality of circulation pipes 6 are arranged in the water vapor circulation conduit member 5.
[0027] When the low-starch rice soup separation electric rice cooker of the present embodiment is used for cooking, firstly, a proper amount of rice is loaded into the upper pot body 1, a proper amount of clean water is loaded into the lower pot body 2, and then the upper pot body 1 is installed on the top of the lower pot body 2. At this time, the water vapor circulation pipeline 5 and the circulation pipe 6 are both extended into the clean water in the lower pot body 2, and the heating element of the electric rice cooker is started to heat the lower pot body 2. The water in the lower pot body 2 is heated to generate water vapor, causing the air pressure in the lower pot body 2 to increase, and the air pressure presses the clean water into the circulation pipe 6, and finally flows into the upper pot body 1 through the water diversion hole 4. The influx of high-temperature clean water realizes cooking of the rice in the upper pot body 1; after cooking for a period of time, the heating of the lower pot body 2 is stopped, the air pressure in the lower pot body 2 is gradually reduced, and the rice soup in the upper pot body 1 is siphoned into the lower pot body 2 from the water diversion hole 4, so that the rice and the rice soup are completely separated, and the starch content in the rice is greatly reduced. Then, the residual heat is used to steam the water on the surface of the rice grains, and the rice tastes light, soft and slightly elastic, and is healthy to eat.
[0028] Specific embodiment 2 of a low-starch rice soup separation electric rice cooker provided by the present invention:
