cleaning & maintenance
PASTA
Refer to the cooking directions listed on the pasta package for the correct amount of water and cooking
time. Pour water and salt in the Express Hot Pot. Turn the Temperature Dial to medium high heat. Add the
pasta once the water is heated. To prevent sticking, make sure to stir pasta during the first two minutes of
cooking. Once pasta is cooked to your preference, strain pasta with the Lid on and prepare as desired.
RICE
Refer to the cooking directions listed on the rice package for the correct amount of water and cooking
time. Pour water, salt, and rice in the Express Hot Pot and stir. Turn the Temperature Dial to high heat.
Once the water is boiling, lower the heat to medium low and cover with the Lid. Once the rice has
absorbed the water, turn the Dial all the way to the left and remove the Lid. Fluff rice with a fork.
POTATOES
Cube potatoes and place them in the Express Hot Pot. Fill the Express Hot Pot with cold water so that the
potatoes are fully submerged under 1” of water. Salt the water and then turn the Temperature Dial to high
heat. Once the water is boiling, lower the heat to medium low and cover with the Lid (make sure that the
water does not boil over). Once the potatoes are fork tender, strain them and prepare as desired.
