VEGETABLE STEAMING GUIDE
He lpful Hints:1. Sinc e most vegetab les only
absorb a sma ll amount of
wa ter, there is no need to
inc rea se the a mount of
wa ter for la rger servings.
2. Alwa ys keep the lid c losed
during the entire steaming

nec essary to open the lid ,
you may want to add asma ll amo unt of wa ter to
help restore the cooking time.

TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM SOLUTION
Rice is too dry/hard
after cooking.
If your rice is dry or hard/chewy when the
rice cooker switches to WARM mode,
additional water and cooking time will soften
the rice. Depending on how dry your rice is,
add to 1 cup of water and stir through.Close the lid and press the COOK button.
When rice cooker switches to warm mode,
open the lid and stir the rice to check the
consistency. Repeat as necessary until rice is
soft and moist.
Rice is too moist/soggy
after cooking.
If your rice is still too wet or soggy when the
rice cooker switches to warm mode, use the
rice paddle to stir the rice. This will
redistribute the bottom (moistest) part of the
rice as well as release excess moisture. Close
the lid and allow to remain on warm mode for
10-30 minutes as needed, opening the lid and
stirring periodically to release excess
moisture.
