Risotto
• The PRESSURE COOK RISOTTO setting is
ideal for making creamy risotto, without all
the stirring and in a fraction of the time.
• Use the SAUTÉ/SEAR setting to soften
onions and other aromatics, as well as
deglaze the cooking bowl with wine.
• The key to creamy risotto is toasting the
rice grains before the liquid is added. Use
the SAUTÉ/SEAR setting to toast the rice,
stirring frequently, for 3–5 minutes or until
the edges become transparent and then turn
white.
• With little or no evaporation during pressure
cooking, it is important to keep to the ratio
of 1-part rice to 3 parts stock. If adding a lot
of vegetables to the risotto, reduce stock by
a third.
• Rice will swell and double or triple in size
after cooking. Do not overfill the cooking
bowl. The total volume of uncooked rice and
stock should not exceed the ‘½’ level marking
inside the removable cooking bowl.
OTHER PRESET SETTINGS:
SAUTÉ/SEAR - Lid Position: OPEN
This preset has three levels: low sauté, medium
sauté and sear.
The SAUTÉ setting is ideal for softening and
caramelizing garlic, onions or vegetables prior
to pressure or slow cooking.
The SEAR setting is designed to enhance and
deepen the taste of meals by using the same
cooking bowl for caramelizing and browning
foods before pressure or slow cooking.
REDUCE - Lid Position: OPEN
This preset has three levels: low, medium and
high.
The REDUCE function is ideal for thickening
and intensifying the flavour of sauces, syrups
and stocks.
STEAM -Lid Position: CLOSE
and rotate to locked position.
The STEAM setting is ideal for steaming food
such as vegetables, fish fillets and dumplings.
When steaming for more than 30 minutes, it
is recommended to add 1 cup warm water into
the cooking bowl at 30 minute increments to
ensure consistent steaming performance.
To reduce condensation forming on the
outside surfaces of the lid and handle, it is
recommended to remove the pressure
release valve.
WARNING
If the lid will not unlock, this indicates the
appliance is still under pressure. Do not force
the lid open as any remaining pressure can
be hazardous. Press and hold the STEAM
RELEASE button to manually release steam
(refer to page 14 for manual and variable steam
release).
SOUS VIDE
The SOUS VIDE setting is ideal for cooking
food to a very precise temperature in a
water bath.
What is Sous Vide?
Sous Vide is a cooking technique that allows
you to cook food to the doneness you desire by
heating water to a set temperature. Food items
are placed in a heat-proof food safe plastic bag,
that is submerged and cooked to your preferred
doneness without the risk of drying out through
over cooking.
