CAPTAIN STAGM-5546 BBQ Rice Cooker Rice Cooker, Rinkan Round Hando, 4 Cook

THUMBS UP ! First batch of rice turned out PERFECT. No burn , no mush. I do believe this round rice cooker pot will be my go to bushpot.The handle does not lock in upright position but it was no problem to catch it with a spoon or stick and bring to upright position to pick the pot up. For the money it is a great functional cooking pot. Very impressed !

The Hango arrived by the earlier estimated delivery date. It was packaged in a tough plastic bag, not a box. And no bubble wrap. That may be why it had a small dent in the top edge of the lid & a smaller dent in the side. This was disappointing. However, The dents are probably no worse than dents it would acquire after a few camping outings.The Japanese Hangos (ハンゴー , Google this Japanese word to learn more) are noted for being made to be convenient to measure rice for cooking either 2 Gō (合) or 4 Go of rice. [ 1Go = 3/4 cup, 1 Go is said to be the right amount of rice for 1 person].The internal dish will measure 2 Go of rice. The lid 3 Go. The pot is marked with a fill line for the water at 2 Go and 4 Go. Estimate the fill level to cook 3 Go of rice.It works quite well for cooking rice the Japanese way. That is rinse the rice, add water to the fill line, let the rice soak for 30 - 45 minutes (分) before cooking. Cook the rice on low heat till it starts to emit steam, then cook on higher heat about 3 minutes, then reduce to lower heat. Put a weight on the lid to help hold in the steam. A rock if camping. Cook until the steam stops coming out + maybe a couple of more minutes. Probably 10 - 15 minutes (分) depending upon heat level Then remove the pot from the heat and invert the pot. This will get the rice off the hot bottom of the pot, so it won't burn. While you let the rice continue to steam for another 15 minutes or so. It cooks rice well by this method.This video shows you the idea as done on a wood fire, but rinse the rice more than shown in this video. Rinse it 4x or so, rinse it also by agitating with you hand. Before pouring off the rinse water. And adding the cooking water.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-czToTzM7YOf course you may cook other foods in the Hango. Despite the dents, I may order another one.

I LOVE it!

easy to cook rice

I would say it is a Super outdoors gear, quality first and nice to use.

焚き火で使用したら1回で写真の様になりました。多少は覚悟してましたがなかなかショッキングなお姿に…。炊飯には問題無さそうです。2合〜4合炊きを想定してるのでソロには大きいかなぁ。でも汁物にも使えるので今後も色々と使ってみます。

丸型で洗いやすので、初心者の方でも楽かと思います。

家でも使いたくなるくらい美味しく炊けました！炊飯器よりも美味しく炊ける不思議。

本当は円形のではない物を購入したかったのですが結果的に円形を買ってよかったと思っています。バーベキューでは網の上にのせてご飯を炊きましたので金網に安定的におくにはこの形状がベストでした。電子ジャーで炊くより風味が増してとても美味しくいただくことが出来ました。商品の作りはしっかりしているので、長く使えそうです。
