[quote=Anonymous]I lived in Japan, DH is Asian, as is our au pair, so I make a metric ton of rice. Get either a Zoujirushi or Sanyo fuzzy logic cooker. I have the Sanyo 10-cup and you can use it to make porridge (oatmeal, rice porridge, grits, etc -- all things my babies loved!) and as a slow cooker, too. You can also program it to cook the rice so it's freshly done at dinner. It's awesome. [b]Store your extra rice in the freezer [/b]in plastic bags in individual portions and then pop it in the microwave to reheat it. You can make a lot and then have easy ready-to-eat rice throughout the week this way. DO NOT store in the fridge, as it gets hard and dries out (only store in the fridge if you are planning to make fried rice, since slightly dry rice is best for fried rice). It will last in the freezer for a few weeks. No need to worry about food poisoning unless you keep the rice at room temp for 8+ hours. I agree that a stick blender will be cleaner and easier than a food processor. But, if you really don't like stick blenders, consider getting a Vitamix (or a cheaper Ninja) as those are basically blender/food processor combos and easier to clean -- and work better for liquidy foods -- than a processor.
