TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS

COOKING TIPS

Refer to the following tips for getting the most out of the different cooking modes.
Searing and sautéing:
• For best browning results, pat exterior
surfaces of meat dry with paper towels
before sautéing or searing.
• It's important not to overcrowd the
cooking pot when browning meat for a
recipe. Brown 0.5 lbs (227 g) or less at
a time for the best results and to avoid
steaming the meat.
• If using oil or butter for sautéing, add it
after preheating the Multi-Cooker.
• To easily drain grease after searing
or sautéing food, place the lid on the
cooking pot in the drain position and
hold it securely with hot pads while
pouring grease into a heat-resistant
container.
• When sautéing vegetables such as
carrots, celery, onions, and garlic, add
larger cut ingredients first and cook for
several minutes before adding smaller
cut foods such as minced garlic. This
ensures all of the vegetables are evenly
cooked and the garlic does not burn.
Steaming:
• It is not necessary to allow the unit to
preheat when steaming foods; simply
add water, place food on the steaming
rack, and set the Multi-Cooker to Steam.
At the end of the preheat time, press the
START button.
• Foods will steam faster if cooked in a
single layer. Larger amounts of food may
need to be repositioned midway through
the cooking time for even results.
• Foods that have been cut or trimmed
into pieces approximately the same size
will cook more evenly.
• Make sure the lid covers the cooking pot
spout to trap steam for optimal cooking
performance.
• Remove the lid slowly during steaming.
Rice:
• It is important to measure rice and
water accurately before cooking for best
results.
• Some varieties of rice are washed/rinsed
prior to cooking. U.S. varieties generally
are not, as they have been enriched
with vitamins and minerals. Rinsing
these types of rice removes the added
nutrients. If washing rice before cooking,
be sure to measure it before washing,
not after, and try to drain as much water
away as possible before adding the
amount needed for cooking.
• After adding rice and water to the
Multi-Cooker pot, spread the rice into
an even layer on the bottom for the best
cooking results. Do not remove the lid
during cooking.
• Make sure the lid covers the cooking
pot spout to trap steam for optimal rice
cooking performance.
• Most types of rice will be slightly
undercooked at the end of the Rice
cooking cycle. Allowing the cooked rice
to rest in the cooking pot with the lid on
for 5 to 10 minutes will allow the last bit
of moisture to be absorbed.
• Oil, butter, salt, and other seasonings
can all be added if desired. Stir in prior
to starting the Rice cooking cycle.
Liquids other than water can also be
used to add flavor. Try substituting
fish, poultry, vegetable, or meat stocks
or broths.
• Chopped fresh herbs can be stirred into
cooked rice at the end of the cooking
cycle before allowing the rice to rest.
Soup:
• Follow the cooking tips for "Searing and
sautéing" when using this part of the
Soup cooking cycle.
• The bits of cooked-on foods on the
bottom of the cooking pot after
browning contain lots of flavor. Add
some of the liquid from your recipe and
scrape them up with a wooden spoon
to add depth and more intense flavor to
your soup.
• Cutting foods into pieces approximately
the same size will ensure the most even
cooking results.
