Instant Pot Brown Rice +3 Flavors to Try

Directions

1. 1
   If you haven’t already, rinse the rice in a fine-mesh sieve (this will remove excess starch and prevent your rice from being sticky). Rinse for at least 30-60 seconds, or until the water runs clear.
2. 2
   Pour rinsed rice into your Instant Pot.
3. 3
   Pour water over the rice, being sure to cover it.
4. 4
   Add the salt and cover with the lid.
5. 5
   Secure the lid of the Instant Pot and double-check that the pressure valve is set to “SEALING” not “VENTING.”
6. 6
   Press “PRESSURE COOK” button and set timer for 22 minutes. Cook rice on manual pressure for 22 minutes. (It will take 5-8 minutes to come to pressure).
7. 7
   Naturally release the pressure 10 minutes.
8. 8
   Quick-release any remaining steam.
9. 9
   Press CANCEL to turn off the heat. Open the lid and fluff the rice with a fork.
10. 10
    (Note: if your rice isn’t quite tender, add 1 Tbsp. water to the pan and seal the lid with the heat off.
11. 11
    Let the residual heat from the pan steam the rice for 2-3 minutes more before opening the lid and checking again.)
