SOME RECOMMENDATIONS FOR BEST RESULTS WHEN
COOKING RICE
“RICE” FUNCTION
• Measure the rice and rinse it thoroughly under running water in a sieve for
2 minutes (except for risotto 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 well distributed around the whole surface of
the bowl, in order to allow even cooking.
• Add salt to your personal taste if required.
• Water may be substituted for stock. If using stock, there is the risk of rice
browning a bit on the bottom of the pan.
• Do not open the lid during cooking as steam will escape and this will
affect the cooking time and the taste.
• When the rice is ready, the “Keep Warm” indicator light will turn on, stir
the rice and then leave it in the multicooker for a few minutes longer in
order to get perfect rice with separate grains.
• Place the appliance on a flat, stable, heat-resistant work surface away
from water splashes and any other sources of heat.
• Pour the required quantity of rice into the bowl using the measuring cup
provided –

. Then fill with cold water up to the corresponding “CUP”
mark printed in the bowl –

.

Note: Always add the rice first otherwise you will have too much water.

• At the end of cooking, the buzzer will ring twice “beep beep”, the
multicooker will start to simmer and the screen will count down the
simmering time: 14 minutes.
