Pressure Cooking Rice/Grains: To achieve best results when pressure cooking
rice/grains, please refer to the below tips and hints:
1. Add 1-2 tablespoons of oil to the dried grains to minimize frothing.
2. Do not fill removable cooking pot more than half way to allow rice/grain to
expand in size.
3. Do not use the quick release method to release pressure; Use the natural
release method instead to release pressure from the cooker.
4. Pearl Barley tends to froth, foam and sputter which may block the pressure
valve if filled too high in the removable cooking pot. Please be sure to not fill
the removable cooking pot more than half way.
