OVERVIEW

ORGANIC RICE COOKER: The VitaClay Rice & Slow Cooker with natural purple clay crock includes 4 functions in 1 - a rice maker cooker, a rapid slow cooker, a warmer, and a soup pot.

HOW IS VITACLAY DIFFERENT FROM PRESSURE COOKER AND CONVENTIONAL CROCK POT SLOW COOKER?

1. A Slow Cooker or Crock Pot can take 8-10 hours to produce decent results. The VitaClay can deliver exquisite results 500% FASTER
2. VitaClay is not a pressure cooker that will choke out the nutrients and flavors of your food in a puff of steam.
3. The VitaClay lives perfectly in the space in between. Slight pressure at lower temperature, check in on results like a chef and add produce at the end to ensure freshness and crisp bright colors. You can’t do this in a pressure cooker easily.
4. Clay is NOT metal, so there is no metal transfer to food.
5. Clay is naturally alkaline and slow heat allows a full bouquet of flavors to develop.
6. VitaClay combines the best of both worlds of crock pot and pressure cooker yet delivered a better end cuisine.  

TIPS & SHORTCUTS:

• Please note: Cooking in VitaClay must have liquid (water or clear broth) to present at all time or no "dry cooking" should be done in any VitaClay pot. Please ensure adequate liquids throughout the cooking cycle, as burning or "going dry" can compromise the integrity of the clay.
