Tips on making delicious rice

Read p.14 to 15 for preparations 

before cooking rice, and p.16 to 

20 for how to cook rice.

Select high quality rice and store it in a 

cool location. 

Choose freshly polished, glossy rice with a 

uniform grain size. Store in a cool, dark, well-

ventilated place.

Carefully measure the rice with the 

supplied measuring cup.

One cup equals about 0.18 L. 

Use the supplied measuring 

cup for rinse-free rice as well.

This product contrives the 

cooking method. It is not 

necessary to use the 

measuring cup for rinse-free 

rice.

Wash the rice quickly.

Stir the rice around with your hand in a generous 

amount of water, pour out the water, and repeat 

until the water remains clear.

When cooking germinated brown rice, 

whole rice or semi-polished rice, select 

the “Plain” or “Ultra” menu.

Cooking rinse-free rice

•  Add the rinse-free rice and water, and then stir 

well from the bottom so that every individual 

grain of rice becomes immersed in the water. 

(Merely adding water to the rice will prevent 

it from soaking in the water and may result in 

improperly cooked rice.)

•  If the added water turns white, we recommend 

you wash the rice thoroughly by replacing the 

water once or twice. (The water turning white 

is due to the starch in the rice and not its bran; 

however, cooking it with the starch left in the 

water may result in burned rice, the contents 

boiling over, or improperly cooked rice.)

Adding other ingredients to the rice

The total amount of ingredients should be no more 

than 70 g per cup of rice. Stir in any seasoning 

well and then add the extra ingredients on top of 

the rice. If other ingredients are to be added to the 

rice, be sure to use no more than the acceptable 

maximum amount (refer to the table below).

•  Add water prior to adding the ingredients. 

Adding water after the ingredients will result in 

the cooked rice being too firm.

•  Cooking it with the seasoning left in the bottom 

of the rice cooker or with using ketchup or 

tomato sauce may result in improperly cooked 

rice.

Add water according to the type of rice 

and your personal preference.

If you choose to use more or less water than the 

recommended amount, do not deviate from that 

amount by any more than 1/3 of one line.

Cooking brown rice and/or multi-grain 

rice mixed in with white rice

•  If the rice to be cooked includes more brown 

rice and/or multi-grain rice than white rice, use 

the “Brown” menu.

•  If there is an equal amount of white rice and 

brown rice and/or multi-grain rice, or there is 

more white rice than brown rice and/or multi-

grain rice, use the “Plain” menu. (The brown 

rice and/or multi-grain rice should be soaked 

separately for 1 to 2 hours before cooking.)

Cooking sweet rice

When cooking sweet rice, select the “Mixed•Sweet” 

menu.

Wash the rice, and then level it out so that all of 

the rice is under water.

Cooking grains together with white rice

•  Use the “Plain” or “Ultra” menu.
•  The amount of multi-grain rice should equal 

less than 20% of the volume of the white rice. 

The maximum acceptable amount for the 

combination of white rice and grains is 5.5 cups 

with the 1.0 L type and 10 cups with the 1.8 L 

type.

•  The grains should be placed on top of the 

white rice. Mixing them together may result in 

improperly cooked food.

Cooking grains together with brown rice

•  Always use the “Brown” menu.
•  The maximum acceptable amount for the 

combination of brown rice and grains is 3.5 

cups with the 1.0 L type and 6 cups with the 1.8 

L type.

Cooking long-grain rice

•  When cooking long-grain rice, select the “Long-

grain” menu. When cooking seasoned rice with 

various ingredients using long-grain rice, select 

the “Mixed•Sweet” menu. Selecting any other 

menu may result in the contents boiling over.
