Rinsing the rice
To make great rice, we highly recommend that you rinse
the plain raw rice before cooking. Simply place desired
amount of rice in a strainer or bowl and rinse under water,
stirring with your hand, until the water runs clear.
Note: if you are using a flavored or enriched rice product, or
the package instructions specifically state not to rinse the
rice, you should skip this step.
Basic Rice Cooking Directions (Rice, Brown,
and Sweet Rice cooking modes)
•
Rinse rice as noted above and add to clay pot (#4 on
parts and assembly diagram). Add desired amount
of water to pot, stir and cover with the clay pot lid.
•
Ensure the exterior of the pot is clean and dry.
•
Place covered clay pot into the Cooker on the
heating element.

Close the Cooker cover. You will hear a “click” when
it snaps shut. Plug cord into a 120-volt AC/60Hz
outlet. The Cooker will beep and
