RICE
Tips for Cooking Rice
• DO NOT fill the Pressure Cooker more than the 1/2 marking.
• Rice tends to foam and froth during cooking. To eliminate this, rice should
be cooked on a rack in an ovenproof casserole (or stainless steel bowl)
that fits loosely inside the Pressure Cooker. Follow the directions below:
1 cup (250 ml) long or medium grain rice
1-1/2 cups (375 ml) water for rice
1-1/2 cups (375 ml) water for Pressure Cooker
Please rack in bottom of Cooking Bowl. Pour in water for Pressure Cooker.
Combine rice and water in casserole then place on rack. Cover Pressure
Cooker and cook for 5 minutes on High Pressure. Let pressure fall on its own.
Open cover and let rice sit uncovered for 5 minutes.
MEAT
Tips for Cooking Meat
• At the highest point, the cut of meat should not be higher than the 2/3
level marked on the inside of the Cooking Bowl.
• Brown meat on all sides to seal in natural juices. See Browning section.
•
DO NOT thicken sauces before cooking. Cornstarch, arrow-root or flour
can be added after cooking.
