Using an electric or stove-top pressure cooker to prepare rice dishes will save you a lot of time. Most types of rice cook in less than 10 minutes in a high-powdered pressure cooker, and even the tougher types – such as Sweet Brown, Short-Grain Brown, Forbidden Black and wild Rice – will usually be ready in less than 25 minutes. In case the User Guide that came with your pressure cooker doesn't include a recommended approximate cooking time for your favorite type of rice, you can use the following tables as general guidelines. Note, though, that the times shown in the charts are rough estimates only – many different factors, including the rice cultivar, storage time and the model of your pressure cooker – can influence the ideal cooking time for rice. The approximate cooking times shown in the charts below are ideal for machines that can be programmed to operate at 13 or 15 PSI (in many, but not all pressure cookers this is the 'high pressure' setting). The third column in each table shows the approximate amount of liquid you should pour to the bottom of the cooker before adding the thoroughly-rinsed rice.

The amounts are shown in US cups of liquid per 1 U.S. cup of dried rice. Water is the most common liquid used, but you can also use chicken stock, beef stock, bouillon, or diluted tomato juice. Regardless of the type of liquid you use, be sure to add a tablespoon of oil or butter to the cooker pot as well – this will help reduce foaming during the cooking process. brown sushi rice nzAdding salt to the cooking liquid is optional.how to slice tuna for sushi rolls Important Note: When adding the dried rice and liquid to the pot, it is important not fill the cooker beyond the halfway mark, as overfilling may clog up the steam vent and/or cause excess pressure to develop in the pot.sushi in brussels belgium

After placing the liquid and uncooked rice in the pressure cooker, close the lid securely, and bring the cooker to high pressure. Begin timing as soon as the pressure regulator begins to rock gently. If you are using a manual stove-top pressure cooker, adjust the heat to the level needed to maintain high pressure.sushi making kit with knife After the recommended cooking time, let the pressure (and temperature) drop naturally – this is called the Natural Release Method and can take anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes, depending on the type and model of your cooker. free online games sushi packOnce the pressure has subsided, open the lid and check if the food is done. order sushi like a ceoIf it's not, add water if necessary and bring the cooker back up to pressure, and cook the food a minute or two longer.sushi making kit buy online

*Per every cup of uncooked rice Note: The recommended cooking times are affected by external pressure. It is generally recommended that those who live at higher altitudes increase the standard cooking time by 5% for every 1,000 feet above 2,000. So, for example, if your kitchen is at 3,000 feet above sea level, you should cook wild rice for approximately 21 to 16 minutes, instead of 20 to 25 minutes.

Sanyo ECJ-HC55S 5-1/2-Cup Micro-Computerized Rice Cooker and Slow Cooker, WhiteI have now used the Sanyo ECJ-HC55S about 50+ times since I bought it from Amazon. Hopefully, my review will help prospective buyers make an informed decision.As of 2009, Sanyo is offering 3 types of 5-cup Sanyo rice cookers in this price range ($100 to $135). There's the D55S, F50S, and HC55s. It was definitely a chore to sort through the marketing lingo and specs sheets. The final conclusions are as such: The D55s is at the low end of the spectrum, with fewer features and a thinner bowl. Both the F50S and HC55S occupy the slot above it. Between these two, the HC55S is the newer model. Features unique to it include: the tofu maker, the option to fine-tune rice texture (soft, regular, firm), and a dedicated slow cooker bowl. The HC55S also has low/hi mode for the slow cooking process.

However, the older F50S retains one big advantage: Its rice cooker bowl is actually thicker (3.5mm vs 3.0mm). Thicker bowls are theoretically better at heat distribution. The thicker bowl explains why the F50S has a slightly smaller cooking capacity than the HC55S (5.0 cups vs 5.5 cups)I decided to go with the HC55S, and it definitely exceeds my expectations. There are plenty of great things about this product, but it's not perfect. I only have two complaints, and I will go over those first:1. Non-stick bowl is only non-stick for white rice. I've cooked various white rice in this unit (Sticky Rice, Jasmine White) and the non-stick feature works as advertised. Very easy to clean. But brown rice is a different matter. I've used this rice cooker for years and it's been great. Cook a lot of brown rice and it comes out delicious. Lately I'm cooking quinoa, better than the stove. This rice cooker died quickly, I replaced it with a zojirushi and have been very pleased. Bought this for my wife who normally doesn't like "clutter" counter top appliances but she loves this cooker.
