Aroma ARC-787D-1NG, Instruction Manual

Safety Considerations:
1) Rice cookers cook at very high temperatures and will produce
large amounts of steam. Use extreme caution when opening rice
cooker during and after the cooking cycle. When removing the
lid, keep hands and face away from the rice cooker to avoid the
steam.
2) If a recipe calls for the sauteing of butter or oil, use extreme
caution, as you would when cooking with other high-temperature
devices like a stove or oven. The inner pot will be hot, so use a
long-handled wooden spoon for stirring. DO NOT USE the
short-handled rice paddle for this type of cooking .
3) It is important to remember that the cooking cycle of the rice
cooker is controlled by the temperature of the inner pot. When
liquid boils off, the temperature will rise, causing the rice cooker to
automatically shift into the low temperature “Keep-Warm” mode.
This is fine for making rice dishes but if a recipe calls for steaming
or making soups, where copious quantities of liquid are used, the
rice cooker will not shut off until all liquid is boiled away. Follow
the recipe carefully and do not leave the rice cooker
unattended as it will continue to cook at high temperatures when
making soups, stews, chilis and steaming. Monitor the cooking
process. MANUALLY TURN OFF the rice cooker when the time that
the recipe stipulates has elapsed.
• Spraying the inner pot with a light coating of nonstick cooking spray
is a great way to make cleanup easier without adding flavor or
calories to your meal.
• When a recipe calls for salt, use kosher salt. It has no impurities or
additives and dissolves easily. You will need to use about one an
half more kosher salt than you would table salt.
• If the rice cooker shuts off before the food is totally cooked, add
more water and start the cooker again.
• Stocks and broths can be used in place of water to add flavor and
improve texture when cooking rice. Stocks and broths can be found
in your local supermarket. Another option is to use bouillon cubes
(they come in a wide variety of flavors). One cube and one cup of
water usually makes one cup of stock.
