went to BBC good food yesterday and they had a rice and pasta cooker that they ‘claimed’ removed 2/3rds of the carbohydrate by cooking at right temperature and removing it. The rice did taste lovely and wasn’t at all sticky.

I am tempted but not a scientist so no idea if the claims work. He said it was different to the theory of cooking & cooling which turns int resistant starch.

Any thoughts?
 
Rice cookers have been around for decades, First came across one when lived in a Nurses home with some Malaysian girls. I have owned a couple over the years. Not good for small amounts. I suspect the carb reduction was a sales speil.
 
Yes I’ve seen plenty of rice cookers but not only claiming to remove carbs. I am concerned it could be sales talk of course. Hoping to get some science to prove one way or another. It was expensive but I’d pay it if it delivers what’s promised. It was by Grayns
 
Rice is very high carb - even if reduced to one third the carbs it is higher than most of the foods I eat.
