The "Nanbu Tekki Gokume Hagama" (NP-WU10 type), which will be released this time, newly adopts a "moist double inner lid" that prevents boiling over. In the process of promoting "pregelatinization" that brings out the stickiness of rice, we have achieved a high thermal power of about 1.3 times that of conventional rice. As a result, the volume of cooked rice is about 105% of the conventional volume, making it possible to cook larger, plump rice. The body color is "Prime Black".
