Rice Cooking - Oster CKSTPCEC6801-013 Instruction Manual

2. Place your food on the cooking rack.
3. Place the Lid on and lock by rotating counterclockwise to the LOCKED position.
4. Using the finger tab, flick the Steam Release Valve to the "Seal" position.
5. Press the STEAM button and adjust the time and pressure as needed.
Note: See the Cooking Guide on page 18 to find the possible time and pressure
adjustments.
6. Once you have made the desired adjustments, if any, press START/STOP.
7. The Multi-Cooker needs to gain pressure before pressure cooking can begin. When
the Multi-Cooker is gaining pressure, "HEAt" will appear on the Display Screen and
the time will not count down. When pressure has been reached, "HEAt" will disappear
on the Display Screen, and the time will begin to count down.
8. After the set cooking time has elapsed, the Multi-Cooker will beep and will
automatically switch to the KEEP WARM setting. The Display Screen will therefore
change from the cook time to a new timer that will count up to 4:00 (4 hours) or until
you press the START/STOP button. After 4 hours in the KEEP WARM setting, the
Multi-Cooker will turn off.
TIP: See the Steaming Chart on page 20.
CAUTION: During cooking, steam will build up in the Multi-Cooker, so when lifting the Lid
use a kitchen glove or mitt to protect your hand.
USING THE BROWN/SAUTÉ FUNCTION
This setting does not cook under pressure. It works similarly to standard cooking,
requiring dry heat, and therefore does not need the Lid. Do not use the Lid with this
function.
Place the Multi-Cooker on a flat, level surface.
Place Cooking Pot inside Heating Base. Plug the Multi-Cooker into a wall outlet. The
Multi-Cooker will beep, and the Display Screen will illuminate with four dashes (- - - -).
1. Select the BROWN/SAUTÉ function and adjust the time and temperature if
necessary, using the + and - buttons.
2. Press START/STOP.
3. When the Multi-Cooker is pre-heating, "HEAt" will appear on the Display Screen.
When the temperature has been reached, the timer will start counting down. Using
plastic tongs, carefully add your food to the hot pot.
BROWN/SAUTÉ can be used for each of the following:
A. Brown (sear) meats for casseroles and soups. Browning meat prior to pressure
cooking and slow cooking not only gives your food great color, but it also seals in the
juices and flavors and keeps the meat tender.
B. Sauté onions or mirepoix (mixture of chopped onion, carrot, and celery), among many
other foods, often used in pressure cooker and slow cooker recipes. Sautéing onions
allows caramelization which contributes to flavor and color in the end dish.
Capacity: When the Multi-Cooker is used to brown or sauté it may be best to cook in
batches to ensure the food is evenly cooked.
When cooking rice, use the RICE/RISOTTO function. This is suitable for all types of rice,
including white and/or brown rice.
The RICE/RISOTTO function cooks under pressure for faster cooking.
Capacity: Since rice expands during cooking, do not fill Cooking Pot above the 1/2 mark
when using the RICE/RISOTTO function.
USING THE RICE/RISOTTO FUNCTION
Place the Multi-Cooker on a flat, level surface.
Place Cooking Pot inside Heating Base. Plug the Multi-Cooker into a wall outlet. The
Multi-Cooker will beep, and the Display Screen will illuminate with four dashes (- - - -).
