Some recommendations
for best results when cooking rice
• Measure the rice and rinse it thoroughly under running water in
a sieve for a long time (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 in the bowl to allow
even cooking.
• Add salt to water: depending on personal taste.
• Water may be substituted with stock. If using stock, there is risk
of rice browning in the bowl.
• Do not open the lid during cooking as steam will escape and
this will affect the cooking time and the taste.
• On completion of cooking, the “KEEP WARM” indicator light is
on, stir the rice and then leave it in the rice cooker for a few
minutes longer in order to get perfect rice with separate grains.
Steam cooking (for vegetables, fish, etc.)
Measuring the ingredients
•
The maximum quantity of water in the bowl should not
exceed the maximum CUP mark shown in “CUP” on the bowl
–
Fig.11. Exceeding this level may cause overflow during use.
• The water level should be lower than the steam basket.
Preparation
• Pour water into the bowl, never exceed the maximum CUP mark.
• Place the steam basket in the bowl – Fig.15.
• Add the ingredients in the steam basket.
To steam cook
• Close the lid.
• Slide the mode switch to the left to choose “RICE/STEAM”
mode –
Fig.13
and then press downwards on the control
switch, the cooking indicator illuminates showing that
cooking has begun –
Fig.13
.
• After the time you estimate ok for steam cooking, you can
end the steam cooking mode by lifting the control switch to
its top position. The “KEEP WARM” indicator light comes on
and the appliance turns to keep warm function.
• When there is no more water in the cooking pot, it will turn
to keep warm automatically, the “KEEP WARM” indicator
light is on –
