COOKING RICE cont'd
TIPS
• •
Add a little extra water for fluffier rice and
a little less water for firmer rice.
• •
Some rice varieties may require more
water for cooking, such as wild rice
blends, Arborio rice or short grain rice.
Follow the directions on the packet or use
the brown rice cooking table.
• •
Due to the additional water needed to
cook brown rice, some starchy water
bubbles may rise to the lid while cooking.
For best results, wash rice before cooking
and keep warm for 20 minutes after
cooking to absorb the remaining moisture.
