Fuji IH Multifunction Rice Cooker by Yum Asia
Using hot water rather than cold water helps speed up the heating process for the steam setting, fill to the 1.5-2
water level mark on the inner bowl when using as a stand-alone steamer.
Note:
The countdown starts when the water has reached the correct temperature for steaming, so factor this into
your cooking time, or add the steaming basket when the countdown starts. See
Section 5, page 14
for a more
detailed guide to steaming
3.5.3 SLOW COOK
For cooking stews and other dishes like curries, dhal, or other pulses/grains select the ‘Slow Cook’ setting.
The
default cooking time for the ‘Slow Cook’ setting is 2 hours. You can adjust this up to 8 hours
using the ‘Hr’ or
‘Min’ buttons once you have selected the ‘Slow Cook’ setting and it is flashing on the display. When the ‘Slow Cook’
cycle starts, the appliance heats the contents of the inner bowl to a high temperature (you will hear bubbling from
the liquid), it then switches to a lower temperature for the slow cooking. This is the same as the ‘auto’ setting on a
conventional slow cooker. Once the cooking cycle is complete, the appliance will make a sound and will
automatically switch to ‘Keep Warm’.
3.5.4 YOGHURT
For making home-made yoghurt. The ‘YOGHURT’ setting maintains the constant temperature (+38 - +40°
С
) required
for bifidus bacteria growth and excellent development of yoghurt out of yoghurt culture and milk.
The
default cooking time for the ‘YOGHURT’ setting is 8 hours. You can adjust this down to 6 hours or up to 12 hours
using the ‘Hr’ or ‘Min’ buttons once you have selected the ‘YOGHURT’ setting and it is blinking on the display. You
can use yoghurt jars or similar containers for this setting or just make the yoghurt in the inner bowl.
Once the cooking cycle is complete, the appliance will make a sound and will automatically switch to stand-by. For
further information on making yoghurt, see section 6.1, page 17.
NOTES -
on the ‘YOGHURT’ setting it does not switch to ‘KEEP WARM’. Keep the lid closed while cooking in this
programme. The delayed start function is available for this programme.
3.6 CANCELLING PROGRAMMES
To cancel a programme you have selected, cancel keep warm or, if you want to stop a programme part way through
the cooking cycle, you just need to press the ‘Menu/Cancel’ button. Fuji will then switch to standby mode.
3.7 HOW TO USE THE DELAYED START (PRESET) FUNCTION
The ‘PRESET’ function is a useful timer/delayed start feature; this allows you to set the appliance to have your rice or
food ready at a specific time.
The ‘PRESET’ function is available for all menu settings.
To set the timer:
1.
Press the ‘Menu’ button to select a cooking programme (for non-rice cooking programmes you can
programme the length of cooking time at this point).
2.
Then press the ‘Preset’ button which will then light up.
3.
By pressing the ‘Hr’ and ‘Min’ touch buttons you can select the hours in advance when the rice/dish should
be ready.
4.
Press the ‘Start’ button, the cooker will display the hours/minutes in advance you selected, start to count
down and the cooking cycle will complete at the time you specified.
Fuji is a very efficient, sealed unit IH rice cooker, the slow cook setting will cook food faster
as there is no heat loss. A normal slow cooker recipe with a cook time of 7-8 hours will take 3-4
hours to cook in Fuji. This is to give a more efficient slow cook.
