Notes

  • Be sure to rinse your rice thoroughly before cooking to remove any excess starch and debris.
  • Do not open the instant pot until the pressure has released naturally for at least 10 minutes to avoid splatters and burns.
  • If you want to make more or less rice, use a 1:1.25 ratio of rice to water and adjust the cook time accordingly.
