HOW TO COOK RICE
STEP 1. Measure uncooked rice
Use only the measuring cup supplied with the rice cooker.
The rice measure cup is equivalent to 6 oz. (0.18 L).
* For every cup of uncooked rice, it yields 2 cups of cooked rice on average.
STEP 2. Wash rice by hand
●
Rice may be washed in the inner pan or in a separate bowl.
●
Wash rice in a short time until water becomes clear. Drain off water
quickly. (Certain brand of rice does not recommend over-rinsing in order
to retain its nutrients.)
●
Do not use hot water over 95°F (35°C) to wash rice.
Note: “Rinse-free rice” is pre-washed prepackaged rice from the store,
thus it does not need washing.
STEP 3. Adjust water level
●
Place the inner pan on an even surface.
●
Adjust the water level accordingly to the scale marked on the inside of
the inner pan.
●
Do not use hot water over 95°F (35°C) to cook.
Note: Use “Plain rice” scale when cooking Rinse-free rice, Germinated
brown rice and Mixed rice.
Tip: Broth may be used to substitute with water.
