When it comes to "electric rice cookers," the older generation will never forget the adorable image of "Dongtong, Dongtong, good Chinese-made products." The Dongtong baby was almost a symbol of the 1950s and 1960s, but at some point, such scenes became a thing of the past. Today, the new generation views "electric rice cookers" as outdated. They might say, "Use an 'electronic cooker' to cook rice—it's so convenient!" In fact, I once had the same thought. Although my mother often says, "The fragrance of rice cooked in an electric rice cooker is unmatched by electronic cookers." "Electric rice cookers aren't just for cooking rice!" "You're so lacking in culinary skills, but if you use an electric rice cooker well, you can hide your weaknesses too!" Before going to the U.S. for a short stay, my mother said, "Bring a small electric rice cooker—it will come in handy." But I still refused, thinking it was too troublesome and wouldn't bring me any benefit. Until one day, I tasted a feast cooked by a Taiwanese woman in the same dormitory using an electric rice cooker. Perhaps the fragrant rice was mixed with nostalgia, and the delicious-looking dishes brought back the smiling faces of Dongtong babies. That inexplicable sense of emotion made me develop an irreplaceable appreciation for electric rice cookers.
After returning to Taiwan, I found an Italian-style pressure cooker in the house, thinking my mother was following trends. Unable to resist the temptation of shopping channels and cooking shows, I assumed she would soon be storing this large pile of stainless steel pots in the attic. One day, I was surprised to see my mother effortlessly stewing a pot of pork trotters—her father's favorite dish—and realized she was serious about it. Now, there's much less smoke in the kitchen. My mother said, "With an electric rice cooker and a pressure cooker, I no longer have to be covered in grease to easily prepare a great meal!"
