A borosilicate glass pot for cooking one to two go of rice in a microwave instead of on a stove. You rinse and soak the rice, then cook it in the microwave — about 10 minutes at 600W for one go of white rice. Glass lets you watch the water level and the rice as it cooks, and the same pot handles seasoned mixed rice (takikomi gohan). It suits people with little counter or stove space, students, and anyone cooking a single serving. Against electric rice cookers it is smaller, cheaper in build and simpler, but it gives you no keep-warm or timer and needs you to judge doneness yourself.
