– fig. 9 or the “minus” key – fig. 10 to select the lenght of time before cooking is
completed. For instance: if it is 1 p.m, and you would like your rice to be cooked at 8

You can delay cooking for up to 9 hours maximum.
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.

important instructions when slow cooking dried beans and dried peas
If you are preparing a slow cooker recipe which contains dried beans or dried peas,
for example red kidney beans or chick peas, they must be soaked in plenty of cold
English
water overnight before cooking them. Drain and rinse them thoroughly, then place in a
large saucepan and cover with fresh cold water. Bring to the boil and continue to boil
rapidly for 10 minutes, uncovered, then drain before using in Slow Cooker recipes.
This destroys any natural toxins in the beans or peas.
Pre-soaking is not necessary for lentils, but they must still be boiled rapidly for 10
minutes.
Canned beans can simply be drained and rinsed, and added 30 minutes before the
end of the cooking time. They do not need to be boiled first.
Do not eat uncooked beans, peas or lentils.
