Tips on making delicious rice

Select high quality rice and store it in a
cool location.
Choose freshly polished, glossy rice with a uniform
grain size. Store in a cool, dark, well-ventilated place.
Carefully measure the rice with the
supplied measuring cup.
One cup equals about
0.18 L.
Use the supplied measuring
cup for rinse-free rice as well.
Wash the rice quickly.
Stir the rice around with your hand in a generous
amount of water, pour out the water, and repeat
until the water remains clear.
When cooking germinated brown rice,
whole rice or semi-polished rice, select
the "Multigrain" menu.
Cooking rinse-free rice
• Add the rinse-free rice and water, and then stir well
from the bottom so that every individual grain of rice
becomes immersed in the water.(Merely adding
water to the rice will prevent it from soaking in the
water and may result in improperly cooked rice.
• If the added water turns white, we recommend you
wash the rice thoroughly by replacing the water once
or twice. (The water turning white is due to the starch
in the rice and not its bran; however, cooking it with
the starch left in the water may result in burned rice,
the contents boiling over, or improperly cooked rice.)
Adding other ingredients to the rice
The total amount of ingredients should be no
more than 2.5 oz (70 g) per cup of rice. Stir in any
seasoning well and then add the extra ingredients on
top of the rice. If other ingredients are to be added to
the rice, be sure to use no more than the acceptable
maximum amount (refer to the table below).

Mixed 3 cups or less 6 cups or less
Porridge • hard 0.5 cup 1.5 cups or less
Brown 3 cups or less 5 cups or less
• Add water prior to adding the ingredients.
Adding water after the ingredients will result in
the cooked rice being too firm.
Read p.15 to 16 for preparations
before cooking rice, and p.17 to
21 for how to cook rice.
Add water according to the type of rice
and your personal preference.
 Amount of water to add
If you choose to use more or less water than the
recommended amount, do not deviate from that
amount by any more than 1/3 of one line.

• When cooking rinse-free rice, use the "Plain"
scale as a reference but add a little extra water
(until it just covers the corresponding line).
• When making with the rinse-free rice, use
"Porridge • hard" scale as a reference for hard
porridge and the "Porridge • soft" scale for a
soft porridge.
• When cooking germinated brown rice, whole
rice, semi-polished rice, or long-grain rice, use
the "Plain" scale as a reference.
• If the amount of water to add is specified on
a package of germinated brown rice or multi-
grain rice, follow those directions and add water
according to your personal preference.
Cooking brown rice or multi-grain-brown
rice mixed in with white rice
• If the rice to be cooked includes more brown
rice or multi-grain-brown rice than white rice,
use the "Brown" menu.
• If there is an equal amount of brown rice and
white rice, or there is more white rice than
brown rice, use the "Plain" menu. (The brown
rice should be soaked separately for 1 to 2
hours before cooking.)
• If there is an equal amount of multi-grain-brown
rice and white rice, or there is more white rice than
multi-grain-brown rice, use the "Multigrain" menu.
(The multi-grain-brown rice should be soaked
separately for 1 to 2 hours before cooking.)
