HELPFUL HINTS:
1. Rinse rice to remove excess bran and starch. This will help reduce browning and
sticking to the bottom of the pot, but it may also reduce nutrients in the rice.
2. If you have experienced any sticking due to the type of rice you are cooking, try
adding a light coating of vegetable oil to the bottom of the inner pot before adding
rice.
