MEAT STEAMING CHART COOKING RICE (CONT.) Meat Amount of Water Steaming Time Safe Temperature Fish 2 Cups 15 Min. 140º Chicken 2-1/2 Cups 20 Min. 165º Pork Beef NOTE 2-1/2 Cups 2-1/2 Cups 20 Min. Medium = 15 Min. Medium-Well =20 Min. Well = 23 Min. 160º 160º 1. Steaming times may vary depending on the cut of meat being used. 2. To ensure meat tastes its best, and to prevent possible illness, check that meat is completely cooked prior to serving.
COOKING RICE (CONT.) INNER POT WATER LINES The water lines in the inner pot may be used to measure the correct amount of water for rice (see illustration below). Be sure to add the desired amount of rice first. Then fill the inner pot with water to the corresponding line in the inner pot (i.e. 6 cups of uncooked rice would be filled to line 6 in the inner pot). This is a quick and easy method to achieve perfect rice results.
TO STEAM AND COOK RICE SIMULTANEOUSLY One of the most convenient features of this rice cooker is the ability to both cook rice and steam food simultaneously, ideal for creating delicious all-inone meals. 1. Place the desired amount of rice and appropriate amount of water into the inner pot. See “Cooking Rice” beginning on page 5 for details. Do not attempt to cook more than 8 cups (uncooked) white or brown rice if simultaneously using the steam tray or the steam tray will not fit once the rice cooks. 2.
USING THE DELAY TIMER The “Delay Timer” function will have rice ready for mealtime up to 15 hours in advance. When setting the timer, it is important to remember that rice will be finished cooking once the amount of time set has elapsed. At that point the rice cooker will automatically switch to “Keep-Warm” to ensure rice is at its freshest for serving. NOTE: To ensure safe food handling, the “Delay Timer” will not work in tandem with the “Smart Steam” function.
