some recommendations for best results when cooking rice
Measure out the rice and rinse it thoroughly under running water in a sieve (except for
risotto rice such as Arborio rice which should not be rinsed). Then place the rice in
the bowl together with the corresponding quantity of water.
Make sure that the rice is evenly distributed around the whole surface of the bowl, in
order to allow even cooking.
Add salt if required. Allow about half a teaspoon of salt for 4 cups of rice, but you can
adjust this to your personal taste. Remember your Rice Cooker uses less water than
when boiling rice so take care not to add too much salt.
Stock may be substituted for water if desired. If using bouillon cubes, take care not to
overseason.
Do not open the lid during cooking as steam will escape and this will affect the
cooking time.
On completion of cooking, when the “keep warm” function is selected, stir the rice
and then leave it in the rice cooker for a few minutes longer in order to get perfect rice
with separate grains.

Measuring the ingredients
