Sakura Multifunction Rice Cooker by Yum Asia
3.5 HOW TO USE THE OTHER COOKING FUNCTIONS
3.5.1 PORRIDGE
This menu setting can be used for Asian rice porridge or oatmeal porridge. For recipes, see page 15.
The default cooking time for the ‘PORRIDGE’ setting is 1 hour. You can adjust this up to 2 hours using the ‘Hr’ or ‘Min’
buttons once you have selected the ‘PORRIDGE’ setting and it is flashing on the display.
Once the cooking cycle is complete, the appliance will make a sound and will automatically switch to ‘KEEP
WARM’.
3.5.2 SOUP
For cooking soups and thinner liquids, select the ‘SOUP’ setting.
The default cooking time for the ‘SOUP’ setting is 1 hour. You can adjust this up to 4 hours using the ‘Hr’ or ‘Min’
buttons once you have selected the ‘SOUP’ setting and it is flashing on the display. Once the cooking cycle is
complete, the appliance will make a sound and will automatically switch to ‘KEEP WARM’.
3.5.3 STEAM
Using the provided steaming basket, you can steam different types of food.
The default cooking time for the ‘STEAM’ setting is 10 minutes. You can adjust this up to 1 hour in 10 minute intervals
using the ‘Hr’ or ‘Min’ buttons once you have selected the ‘STEAM’ setting and it is flashing on the display. There
will be a countdown on the display – this will only start to countdown when the water has been heated. Using
hot water rather than cold water helps speed up the heating process. Fill to the 2-3 water level mark on the inner
bowl when using Sakura as a stand-alone steamer.
See Section 5, page 13 for a guide to steaming.
3.5.4 SLOW COOK
For cooking stews and other dishes like curries, dhal, or other pulses/grains select the ‘SLOW COOK’ setting.
The default cooking time for the ‘SLOW COOK’ setting is 2 hours. You can adjust this up to 8 hours using the ‘Hr’ or
‘Min’ buttons once you have selected the ‘SLOW COOK’ setting and it is flashing on the display. When the ‘SLOW
COOK’ cycle starts, the appliance heats the contents of the inner bowl to a high temperature (you will hear
bubbling from the liquid), it then switches to a lower temperature for the slow cooking. This is the same as the
‘auto’ setting on a conventional slow cooker. Once the cooking cycle is complete, the appliance will make a
sound and will automatically switch to ‘KEEP WARM’.
Sakura is a very efficient, sealed unit fuzzy logic rice cooker, the slow cook setting will
cook food faster as there is no heat loss. A normal slow cooker recipe with a cook time of 7-8
hours will take 3-4 hours to cook in Sakura. This is to give a more efficient slow cook.
