provided rice measuring cup.
- Fill the cooking bowl with water to the corresponding water marking, i.e.
for 1 rice cup, fill to the 1 cup water marking, etc.
• To reduce foaming, add a small amount of butter or oil to the water
before cooking.
• Kosher salt has no impurities and dissolves faster than table salt. If using
kosher salt, you may find you want to add a little more than if using table
salt. About ¾ tsp. of kosher salt is recommended for each rice cup (5 fluid
oz.) of uncooked rice.
• White rice can be stored in an airtight container in a cool dark place for
up to one year.
• Brown rice can be stored in an airtight container in a cool dark place for
up to six months. Refrigeration or freezing extends its shelf life.
• Try using broth, stock or reconstituted bouillon in place of water for
additional flavor. If you do, no additional salt may be necessary.
• Do not keep small amounts of rice in the warm cycle for extended periods
of time because it can dry out the rice.
• During cooking, a thin crust may develop on the rice at the bottom of the bowl.
If you do not like rice with a crust, you can easily peel it off and discard it.
• Taste/firmness will vary depending on the quality/type of rice used and
length of time it is cooked. For softer, fluffier rice, add a little more water.
For firmer rice, use less water.
• For other types of grains not listed in the cooking chart, follow package
directions.
