Information
About rinse-free rice
I Rinse-free rice does not require rinsing before cooking. However, the instructions stated below must be followed.
• Rice bran has already been removed from rinse-free rice, thus the amount of rinse-free rice will be more than usual if it is
measured with the measuring cup provided.
➝
Add slightly more water than usual to see how the rinse-free rice is cooked. Then adjust the amount of water to suit your
taste in the future.
• Rinse-free rice sometimes does not mix well with water.
➝
Stir from the bottom gently before cooking.
When water is added, the water will become slightly whitish due to dissolved starch from the rice. If rice becomes more
brownish than usual or there is an unpleasant smell, rinse the rice slightly with water.

2 Rinse the rice until
water becomes
relatively clear.

G Do not use hot water or alkaline ionized water of
pH9 or higher. (Cooking with these types of water
may result in rice yellowing or becoming too sticky.)

rice, adjust the water level to slightly higher than
water level indication for white rice.
G Adjust the water amount to your taste.
