Can i cook wild rice in it?

The manual says not to cook wild rice alone due to the amount of water needed. It does, however, say you can cook a wild rice blend. I have never tried that so can't really answer your question. You can download the manual that will give you more information.

The manual recommends that wild rice be combined with other rice. Yesterday I cooked a combination that included wild rice that worked out just fine.

Yes you can cook with it. I have made banana pancakes with it.... To make it a complete protein though you have to mix it with brown rice protein.

Yes, just add a little more water and cook for longer than you would white rice. Instead of 2x the water, do 2.5x and cook for closer to 40 minutes

Yes you can. As long as you don't over fill it. I also cook lentils in the rice cooker.

It should work fine. What I did not do was read the instructions prior to using it assuming this was all I needed to make the rice. But in fact you are to get a pot much bigger than this and fill it part way with water than place this inside. I thought this was such a pretty rice cooker I got it. I just tried cooking rice in it on the stove in this pot and it did not turn out very well. You must use the larger pot and put this inside.. We accidentally broke the lid before discovering this so we have not actually used it in in the way it was intended. You will need a very large pan or pot to put this in. It is like it shows, very pretty. It should work fine. What I did not do was read the instructions prior to using it assuming this was all I needed to make the rice.

The literature only has instructions on cooking rice. The box mentions cooking soup but nothing in the instructions. I think you'll have to go to a multi-use cooker.

If you don't like brown rice, then you probably won't like the wild blend, as there is brown rice in it. This blend cooks up very dense and chewy, which I really like, but if that's not your thing, I'd suggest you steer clear of it.

I don't believe so because it has a moving paddle that mixes the rice and the temperature it cooks at seems higher than a regular rice cooker.

Sorry. I never tried. I only use it to cook white rice and brown rice and they turn out perfectly.

I honesty don't know. I pretty much only cook Basmati rice in it. You have to play with the water level. I error on the side of less so the rice stays firm but not mushy. But it seems all rice cookers are like that. I am very happy with it without a doubt.

Never tried - would not imagine how you could. It is a steamer for dim sum, buns, etc. I would not use it for rice. Get a rice cooker - I like the 14 cup stainless steel one from Aroma - available at Amazon, but we got ours from Walmart.com

Yes by using the stove function. You put your water and rice in, cover it, set the timer and you'll have perfect rice.

I have not used this to cook anything in but I don't know why you couldn't. It's large so it would hold a lot of greens or shrimp. You just want to make absolutely certain you have it totally dry before you put it away because they tend to rust easily.

Hi Millie. I really hate it when people who don't know the answer answer anyway. It's so useless. Anyway - yes, you can cook it in a rice cooker. Thru trial and error I've discovered that pretty much any whole grain can be cooked that way. I have a small rice cooker and figured out that if I stick to 1 cup grains to 2 cups water it's usually fine. Amaranth doesn't have to be rinsed first but make sure you read the package of any other whole grain to see if that one does need to be rinsed.
