My rice cooker lid cracked mid-cook and I winged it
Last Tuesday the glass lid on my cheap 3-cup rice cooker shattered while the rice was still steaming. I finished the batch with a plate and a towel on top, and it somehow came out fine. Anyone else had a makeshift lid save a meal, or did you just toss it and order takeout?

Did your rice actually turn out okay, or was it a little crunchy on the bottom? My buddy Dave did the same thing with a pot lid and a dish towel last year, but his rice ended up with a weird plastic taste because the towel dipped down and touched the grains. He still ate it though, just said it was "campfire rice" and topped it with soy sauce. The real kicker is he didn't buy a new rice cooker for like three months, just kept using the towel trick every single time. Honestly, the plate method sounds way more solid than what he was doing.
