cooker, trimming bottoms if necessary so they stand upright. Lock the lid in place and
program HIGH pressure and cook for 10 minutes. Turn regulator knob to SEAL.

raspberries in a processor until smooth.

Perfect Asian Rice
Take the guess work out of cooking rice with our new rice feature. For the perfect sticky rice
all you have to do is add equal parts white rice and water.. You choose the amount of rice,
add the same amount of water, lock the lid, press the RICE function, set regulator knob to
SEAL and then press start.
1 cup of rice / 1 cup of water
2 cups of rice / 2 cups of water
3 cups of rice / 3 cups of water
Note:
The RICE function automatically defaults to 12 minutes regardless of how much rice you
are cooking. Once you press start the unit will heat and the pressure will build in the cooker.
Once the optimal pressure is reached the timer will begin to count down as it cooks your
rice on high pressure. The more rice you have in the unit the more time it will take to come
under full pressure.
If you prefer rice that is more moist you can add more water and control your time by using
the HIGH pressure cooking mode.
Use this chart as a guide:
2 cups white rice / moister consistency / 4 cups water or broth / 10 minutes
2 cups yellow rice / 4 cups water or broth / 12 minutes
2 cups brown rice / 4 cups water or broth / 20 minutes
2 cups long grain wild rice / 4 cups water or broth / 35 minutes
There are many different types of rice and desired textures. The quality of rice you choose
can also adjust the cooking time. Use this chart as a guideline and experiment on high
pressure to find the right amount of cooking you will need to prepare your favorite rice.
