Yes, the Instant Brands rice cooker is not just for cooking rice, it can also cook a variety of different grains such as quinoa, mixed grains, and more. In fact, the Instant 20-Cup Rice Cooker, Rice and Grain Multi-Cooker with Carb Reducing Technology without Compromising Taste or Texture from the makers of Instant Pot includes 8 different cooking presets to make cooking effortless. Here are step-by-step instructions on how to use your Instant Brands rice cooker to cook other grains.
Step 1: Measure out the grain you want to cook. Use the measuring cup that came with your Instant Brands rice cooker or a separate measuring cup to accurately measure out the amount of grain you want to cook.
Step 2: Rinse your grain. Rinse your grain under cold water until it runs clear. This helps remove any dirt or debris that may be on the grains and ensures they cook evenly.
Step 3: Add water or broth to your inner pot. The amount of water you need will depend on the type and amount of grain you are cooking. Check the user manual that came with your specific model for recommended ratios.
Step 4: Add in any additional ingredients such as spices or vegetables if desired.
Step 5: Close and lock your lid securely on top of your inner pot.
Step 6: Select the appropriate preset or set manual mode according to what you're making (i.e., quinoa). Set it up by pressing buttons until numbers match up with duration found in recipe books/online guides (if there aren’t any specific timings mentioned).
Step 7: Press start and let it work its magic!
The result will be perfectly cooked grains every time.
