In the following description, a detailed structure will be presented for a thorough understanding of embodiments of the invention. It is apparent that the implementation of the embodiments of the present invention is not limited to the specific details familiar to those skilled in the art. The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, however, other embodiments of the invention are possible in addition to these detailed descriptions.

Fig. 1-3 show a cooking appliance 100 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The cooking appliance 100 may be an electric rice cooker, an electric pressure cooker, or other cooking appliances, and may have various functions such as cooking rice, cooking porridge, cooking soup, and the like.

As shown in fig. 1, the cooking utensil 100 generally includes a pot body 110 and a lid 170, wherein the inner pot 120 is disposed in the pot body 110, the lid 170 is openably and closably disposed on the pot body 110, and when the lid 170 is closed on the pot body, a cooking space can be formed between the lid 170 and the inner pot.

The pot body 110 of the cooking appliance 100 has a substantially rounded rectangular parallelepiped shape and has a cylindrical-shaped receiving portion. The inner pot 120 may be configured to be freely put into or taken out of the receiving part to facilitate the cleaning of the inner pot 120. In addition, a heating device and a control device are further disposed in the pot body 110, the heating device may be located below the inner pot 120 to heat the food in the inner pot 120, and the user can control the cooking operation of the cooking appliance 100 through the control device.

As shown in fig. 2 and 3, cooking appliance 100 further includes a basket assembly and a steaming tray 140. Specifically, a basket assembly is supported within the inner pan 120, the basket assembly including a basket 130 and an extension tube 134 disposed on a basket bottom wall 131 and extending away from the basket 130. The upper part of the food steamer 130 is hermetically connected with the opening part of the inner pot 120, the bottom of the food steamer 130 is provided with a water permeable area 133, the water permeable area 133 is radially positioned inside an extension cylinder 134, and the food steamer side wall 132 of the food steamer 130 is a continuous closed ring surface.

The food steamer assembly is used for steaming low-sugar rice, namely the inner pot 120 is used for containing water, and the food steamer 130 is used for containing food materials such as rice, and specifically, the upper edge of the food steamer 130 is in sealing fit with the upper edge of the inner pot 120, for example, the sealing fit is realized through a sealing ring, so that a sealing separation cavity between the inner pot 120 and the food steamer 130 can be formed, when a heating device heats the inner pot 120, the water temperature in the inner pot gradually rises or even boils, the sealing separation cavity between the inner pot 120 and the food steamer 130 generates pressure, and then the water in the inner pot 120 can be pressed into an opening space surrounded by the extension cylinder 134 and then enters the food steamer 130 through the water permeable area 133 to soak and flush the rice; when the heating means stops heating, the temperature of the water in the inner pot 120 gradually decreases and the pressure disappears and the hot water used for the immersion flush in the basket 130 will flow back into the sealed compartment through the water permeable area 133. Therefore, repeated soaking and washing of food materials in the food steamer 130 can be realized through control over the heating device, sugar and starch flow back into the water at the bottom of the inner pot 120, and meanwhile, in the repeated soaking and washing process, water level in the inner pot 120 is reduced due to the fact that the food materials such as rice absorb water, or the pressure in the inner pot 120 is controlled through control over the heating device, water and rice can be separated, and therefore the rice steaming process is realized.

With continued reference to FIG. 3, the steaming tray 140 may be used to cook rice, the steaming tray 140 being received in the basket 130 with the upper edge of the steaming tray 140 overlapping the upper edge of the basket 130.
