The maximum capacity for this rice cooker is 6 cups of cooked rice. Do not place more than 3 rice scoops of uncooked white rice into the unit at one time. Special Instructions for Cooking Brown Rice: Do not cook more than 2 rice scoops of brown rice. For 1 rice scoop of brown rice use the same water mark as for 1 rice scoop of white rice. For 2 rice scoops of brown rice measure out 3 rice scoops (18 ounces or 540 ml) of water and add to the pot. *Cooking times may vary depending on household voltage. The higher the voltage the shorter the cooking time; the lower the voltage the longer the cooking time. 3 HElPFUl HINTS • If desired, white rice may be rinsed in cold water prior to cooking. Rinsing makes rice less sticky by removing some of the starch. Rinse rice in another bowl or colander until water is clear. Brown rice, which has the bran intact, does not benefit from rinsing. • Like other rice cookers, the cooked rice that is in contact with the bottom of the rice pot will have a light brown, crust-like appearance. This is normal. This brown crust may be minimized with white rice if you soak the rice prior to cooking. • Rice can be flavored by using a combination of water and broth or broth alone. If broth is substituted for water, use the same amount of broth as you would water. • Brown rice requires more water and takes longer to cook than white rice. See the special instructions for cooking brown rice at the bottom of page 3. • Different rices cook up moister and softer than others. In addition, firmness of the rice is a matter of personal preference. Water amounts may be adjusted to achieve desired texture. Try adding (for softer rice) or reducing (for firmer rice) water in 2 tablespoon increments for each scoop of rice cooked until the rice is to the desired moisture level. Never exceed the “MAX” fill level. • For flavorful rice pilafs or casseroles, saute your favorite chopped veggies with desired spices in a small amount of vegetable oil in a skillet until veggies are translucent and tender. Follow steps 3 and 4 of the “To Cook Rice” instructions (see page 2), add the sauteed veggies, and proceed with steps 5 through 10. • To prevent loss of steam and heat, do not remove cover from rice cooker during cooking. • A kitchen timer is very helpful if you want to know approximately when the rice will be ready to serve. Simply set the timer for the maximum cooking time and add 10 minutes for the warming period. CARE AND ClEANING 1.
