The instruction says if 3 cups of rice are put in the pan then fill the water to the 3 line. do you put the rice in first and then add water?

Yes, put rice in first then add water to the correct fill line. I like to add a small amount over the mark but you will learn how you like it best.
1011176
Yes I do. I also wash the rice then drain the water out then add up to the 3 cup line. I also let the rice sit in the pot without plugging in for a few minutes

I don't know. I do not have the item anymore because it was written in Japanese and Chinese. Really piss because no English instruction.

I have done it both ways and the rice has always turned out perfectly. It is a personal preference as to how you like your rice and/ or how you plan to use it in a recipe. Hope this helps.

I don't know. How I cook is put rice add water rinse rice then I measure it with about 3/4 of an inch from the rice surface to the top surface water. I don't follow rice cooker cooking instruction.

I prefer rice to water=1:2, cause I like softer rice. Less water harder rice. I rinse the rice first.

I am wanting one of these pressure cookers and saw your rice question. When I use my rice cooker, you get much better results when you rinse the rice before placing in the cooker. So that might be the case with a pressure cooker. That being said, whenever I make rice on the stovetop I don't measure the water. I fill the pot up like for pasta, add the rice and have it come to a boil. Then I turn it down a notch so it won't boil over, check it in about 20 minutes, and drain in a strainer. Let it drain, rinse with hot water then fluff with fork. It turns out fluffy every time.

Yes, you add rice and water to the inner pot, AND add water to the outer pot. I guess adding water to the outer pot is necessary when you cook anything with this rice cooker

for white rice/jasmine rice/basmati rice if i use a cup of rice i add the dry rice first then add water up to the 1 mark. for brown rice it is slightly different, i use slightly less water per cup of rice.

Very nicely if you stick with a ratio of 2 - 3 cups water to 1 cup rice (depending on how firm or soft you like it). We add a little olive oil and salt at a minimum - seems to cook better, and sometimes substitute veg broth for some of the water for flavor.

The way we do it is. Decide how much rice you want to cook. Let's say one cup uncooked. Put it in the pot...then look for the levels based on what you are cooking: brown etc. Fill up the cooker with water up to that line...For example, you have one cup of uncooked brown rice, put the brown rice in the cooker, then fill up the cooker with water to the line that says 1 cup under the brown rice section. Hope that is clear as mud. You will find the cooker is actually quite smart and forgiving. We've made nice rice every time. As for oatmeal, I'll check on that. I think the principle is the same, but I don't usually prepare it. The way we do it is. Decide how much rice you want to cook. Let's say one cup uncooked.

Rice-water ratio should be 1 to 1. For the best result, you should put slightly more than 4 cups of water for 4 cups of rice.

Please just follow their guidance by using their cup to measure the rice. If you add two cups of rice and add the water up to level 2 or a little over, you generally get the well-done rice up to level 2 or a little over. Just unplug the rice cooker quickly after the warm-light on and keep the lid covered for another 10 minutes before serving the rice.

It calls for 4 parts broth to one part rice. So if you are making 1 cup of rice you would use four cups of water.

Yeah I know ..very easy..Wash rice and fill adequate amount of water for the corresponding amount of rice,say 1 cup of rice needs 2 cups of water or so.Wait for the whistle(usually 1 or 2 whistles is needed.It depends on type of rice).Let the cooker gets cool down its own or place it below running water.Remove the whistler first and then the lid,filter excess water if any..If the rice is not done boil rice for another whistle..It all takes only 10-15mins..Enjoy rice!!

I use the cup that comes with the rice cooker and fill to the water level line suggested in the instructions pamphlet.

There are measuring lines inside the bowl for the different types of rice, and that's what I've been using to get perfect rice. I usually use three measuring cups of brown rice, then add some broth/stock/herbs/whatever and I make sure to keep it under the three cup line for brown rice on the inside of the bowl. If it's under, then I add water to reach the brown three cup line. You do have to check that you are using the correct line for your rice type. Page 11 in the instruction manual has "Tips for Cooking Rice" and it discusses water levels for different amounts and types of rices.

I may be able to find mine and make a copy, but have not used the directions for over a year. The unit comes with a measuring cup... and marking on the side for water...don't use either. Basically, I just follow the rice directions on the side of a package...select white (ok, I don't really eat white rice) or brown, add a tiny bit of oil to prevent boil over, and turn it on (being careful not to put too much in). It does the rest. I happen to like my rice a tiny bit moister, so usually put a small amount more water than suggested (as in under 1/8 cup for a 5 cup batch). It gets really hot, and then begins lowering the amount of heat until it reaches the end of the timed cycle...showing 1 minute remaining....it then continous to heat, until it measure the rise in temp from running out free water and turns off...pretty simple actually Cycles can take much longer than it initially shows, depending on the rice.

1 cup of rice add 1 3/4 cups of water makes 4 servings which is about 2 1/2 to 3 cups cooked rice. For extra flavor, I add a little chicken or vegetable bouillon. This rice is delicious hot or cold.

To cook rice, you simply add water to uncook rice. You can look into the inner surface wall of the pot to find out how much water you need. For example, if you want to cook 2 cups of rice, put uncook rice in the pot and add water to the 2 cup level marked on the wall of the pot.

Standard procedure of cooking rice is to take 1 cup of rice with 1.75-2 cups of water and soak it for 15 minutes before starting the cooker. The cooker automatically stops after cooking or it will switch to 'keep warm mode".
