Classic Taiwanese indirect heat rice cooker & steamer, 6 cups (2.4L), stainless steel pearl white — the legendary kitchen workhorse trusted for generations
Too many buttons, confusing menus, fragile electronics — modern rice cookers break down and frustrate. The Tatung way is different: simple, reliable, and built to last decades.
Digital rice cookers with circuit boards and touchscreens fail after a few years. Tatung's simple mechanical design has been running strong in Taiwanese households for 50+ years.
Most rice cookers only cook rice. Tatung's indirect heating method lets you steam, braise, stew, and make porridge — it's a full kitchen workhorse in one compact unit.
Complex inner lids, rubber gaskets, and non-stick coatings that peel. Tatung's stainless steel outer pot and simple lid design wipe clean in seconds — no hidden grime traps.
High-end IH cookers cost $300-500 and still only cook rice. At $189.99, the Tatung does rice, steaming, braising, and stewing — real value for a multi-functional kitchen tool.
Rice, porridge, steamed fish, braised pork, herbal soup — the Tatung handles it all with water-separated indirect heating that preserves every ingredient's original flavor.
Indirect heating gently steams rice from all sides. No burnt bottoms, no mushy spots — just perfectly fluffy, evenly cooked rice every single time. Add water, press the switch, done.
Use the included steaming tray to steam fish, dumplings, or vegetables while rice cooks below. One cooker, two dishes, zero extra effort — the ultimate weeknight hack.
Low, even indirect heat is perfect for braising. Taiwanese braised pork belly, herbal chicken soup, or red-cooked beef — set it and let the Tatung work its slow-cook magic.
The gentle water-separated heating simmers rice into creamy, silky congee without scorching. Perfect for breakfast, baby food, or comfort meals when you're under the weather.

Get the most out of your purchase with these practical tips
Always rinse rice until water runs clear. This removes excess starch and prevents gummy texture. Use the included measuring cup for accuracy.
White rice ≠ brown rice ≠ sushi rice. Each grain type has an optimal cooking program. Using the wrong setting affects texture significantly.
Monthly, check and clean the steam vent and inner lid gasket. Buildup affects cooking performance and can cause odors.
Follow the water level lines inside the pot. They account for the rice cup measurement (180ml), not US cups (240ml).
