Cooking rice Best results for cooking rice depend on the right proportion of rice to water. When preparing rice, follow the instructions on the packaging and check if: * you have plain, uncooked rice? * the rice has been pre-cooked or steamed? Pre-cooked rice is available under such names as “instant rice”, etc. All information about rice (white or brown, long-grain, wild, basmati, etc.) concerns its quality and taste. This has little meaning for cooking the rice.
7. Leave the rice inside the closed pot for another five minutes before removing. 8. Press the locking button and open the lid. 9. Remove the plug from its socket. Preparing pre-cooked rice (instant rice) When measuring water for instant rice, follow the instructions on the package. 1. 2. 3. 4. Pour the measure water into the inner pot. Place the inner pot inside the rice cooker and close the lid. Insert the plug into an outlet. Push the ON/OFF switch down. The red “COOKING” indicator will come on. 5. 6.
• Pour the measured water into the inner pot and place it inside the rice cooker. • Place the food products on the sieve, place the sieve inside the inner pot and close the lid. CAUTION! When filling the sieve, never place food products above the top of the sieve. • Place the rice cooker plug into a socket and press the ON/OFF switch down. • Keep the lid closed during steaming if possible. When open, the rice cooker loses the steam required for steam cooking.
