How to cook rice
Before using your Risotto and Rice Perfect for the first time wash the removable cooking pan, lid, rice measuring cup and serving spoon in warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
1.Using the rice measuring cup provided, measure out the required quantity of rice, making sure that the rice is a level cup full. Refer to the Rice Cooking Charts on page 8.
2.Place the measured rice in a sieve and wash rice thoroughly under cold water. Continue washing rice until water runs clear. Making sure to shake off any excess liquid once washed. This removes excess starch which will make the rice fluffier.
3.Ensure the exterior of the cooking pan is clean and dry before placing inside the heating vessel.
4.Place the washed rice in the cooking pan, and add cold water. Make sure that the rice is spread evenly in the bottom of the pan.
5.Replace the lid.
6.Press the MENU button until the RICE light is illuminated. When rice is cooked, the unit will beep and automatically switch to KEEP WARM.
7.The Sunbeam Risotto and Rice Perfect will remain on the KEEP WARM setting for 30 minutes until you’re ready to serve. After 30 minutes it will switch off, this will ensure the rice is warm but not overcooked.
