Cooking Tips For Gourmet Rice - Tiger JKW-A10S User Manual

Cooking
Tips
Choose high quality rice
and store it in a cool place.
Choose freshly polished,
glossy rice of the same grain
size. Store it in a cool, dark,
well-ventilated place.
Carefully measure rice with
the supplied cup.
(A cup equals approximately 0.18 L.)
* Use the supplied cup for Rinse free rice
as well.
Quickly rinse the rice
Use a generous amount
of water, then pour out
the water.
Repeat this process until
the water runs clear.
To cook rolled barley, multi-grain, germinated
brown rice, haiga rice (rice with embryo buds) and
semi-polished rice, select the [Plain rice] Menu.
* When cooking white rice and other grains together, layer
the grains on top of the rice before cooking.
Mixing the 2 types of rice may result in uneven cooking.

To cook rinse-free rice
● Add the rinse-free rice and water to the inner pan, then
thoroughly stir the rice from the bottom so that all grains
are immersed in water. (Simply pouring water on top of
the rice from above does not submerge all of the rice and
can prevent the rice from cooking properly.)
● If the water clouds up when added to the rice, it is
recommended to rinse the rice 1 or 2 times. (The clouding
is caused by the starch, not the bran. Rice that cooks in
cloudy water can burn or not cook properly, and the water
can boil over.)
When Mixing White rice with Brown rice or multi-
grain rice
● When the proportion of brown rice or multi-grain rice is
greater than that of white rice, please choose the [Brown
rice] Menu.
● When the proportion of brown rice or multi-grain rice is
less than or equal to that of white rice, please choose the
[Plain rice] Menu. (In this case, soak the brown rice for
1-2 hours before cooking.)
