HOW TO COOK BROWN RICE
Brown rice is the entire grain of rice with only the inedible outer husk removed. The nutritious, high-
fiber bran coating gives the rice a light brown color. Brown rice has a nutlike flavor and chewy texture
and retains all its natural vitamins and minerals. It takes longer to cook than white rice. One cup
of uncooked brown rice makes about 3 cups cooked rice.
1. Measuring the Rice
Use the provided measuring cup to measure the desired amount of brown rice.
The maximum amount of cooked brown rice is less than the maximum amount of cooked white
rice. Use the chart below to determine the brown rice cooking capacity of each model.

number "0.8" line embossed on the
