          I think I might need to add that to mine too.

      I used my rice cooker to make coconut rice for the first time and I’m sitting here wondering why I’ve never done this before.

        Is it a full replacement of water with coconut milk or a blend?

          Full replacement, but I used light coconut milk. Don’t think it would have worked full with regular. It’s delicious.

            I might have to try that sometime with my rice cooker though recently I got the water ratio wrong.

            Do you use the same amount of coconut milk as you would water?

              Yeah the same amount of liquid, I had enough to fill the amount I was cooking. Light is watered down already, for regular I’d use maybe 1/3 water.

        There’s a delightfully unhinged novel called A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian by Marina Lewycka that I think you would enjoy very much. If you haven’t found it already that is. A best seller in its day and stands the test of time. Does not noticeably contain tractors.

        I believe it was quite harsh.

      Just watched the 1st ep of Midnight Mass, which looks very lush and suitably scary
