Rice Cooking Guide
NOTE:
The rice cooker rice measuring cup = 180ml. If you misplace the
rice measuring cup, any cup including a standard metric cup can be
used, but it is important that the ratios are abided to. Do not leave the rice
cooker on the ‘WARM’ cycle for longer than 5 hours.
The quantity of water used will depend on the age and strain of the rice, as
well as personal taste.

Steaming
Steamed food retains most of its
nutritional value. Food may be
steamed by placing it on the steaming
tray over stock or water and covering
with the glass lid. Keep the glass lid on
while steaming unless the recipe or
chart specifically calls for removing the
lid. By removing the lid unnecessarily,
you lose steam and valuable time.
1.
Place 3 rice measuring cups or
more of water or stock into the
removable cooking bowl
2.
Place food to be steamed directly
onto the steaming tray and insert
into the removable cooking bowl.
(Refer to the steaming charts on
pages 11 and 12 for approximate
cooking times).
