RECIPES

For all recipes in this Instruction & Recipe Booklet
use the included Rice Cooker Measure Cup to
measure the rice or grain. Use a standard liquid
measure cup (1 cup = 8 ounces = 16 tablespoons)
to measure all liquids. (This keeps your Rice
Cooker Measure Cup dry for measuring dry rice/
grain.)
The Rice Cooker Measure Cup = ¾ cup standard
dry measure or 12 tablespoons. Only white rice
can be cooked to the maximum amount possible
in the Rice Cooker (4 Rice Cooker cups/8 Rice
Cooker cups). Do not cook more than the sug-
gested amounts of other rice on the cooking chart,
as the amount of liquid needed to cook larger
amounts will boil over.

natural to the rice. We use the Wild Pecan

makes a great side dish.
