      Sex.

      Serious answer: In the past I’ve made apple sauce/compote, reheated meals, boiled eggs, steamed vegetables and dimsum, reheated/cooked stuff like soup, etc. etc.

      Also useful as a bain marie. Apparently you can also make bread and cakes in them. Also hot chocolate.

      Honestly, if I ever move to an appartment, I think a rice cooker, air fryer, and microwave would allow me to do almost all of my cooking.

      It really depends on the type of rice cooker you have. But they’re useful for a lot of other grains. I make steel cut oats in mine a lot, which have a much nicer texture than rolled or instant oats.
