1 - General tips & tricks

- Do not forget to wash the rice under tap water before cooking. It will remove the starch and will avoid the gluey aspect of the cooked rice.
- If you cook too much rice, you can use the remaining quantity to prepare a delicious rice salad during summer.
- You like Asian food! Your rice cooker allows you to prepare several fantastic Chinese, Thai recipes with flavoured rice and steamed food.
- If you've got guests, give an authentic atmosphere by decorating your table with Chinese dishes and chopsticks. You can decorate your dishes with sculptured vegetables (radishes, flower-shaped tomatoes, star-shaped carrots). You can also fold the napkins like a lotus flower.
- Serve the meal with sauce: soy, ginger, sweet and sour




2 -  Holding the lid

When you are ready to eat, you can place the lid on the side handle equipped with a condensation collector. It holds the lid and collects the condensation, so you can easily take the ingredients from the bowl.




3 -  Holding the spoon

During cooking, you can clip the spoon on the handle lid.




4 -  Tips for better results in cooking rice

- Make sure that the rice is spread over the whole surface of the bowl to ensure even cooking.
- Once cooked, stir the rice and leave it in the rice cooker for few minutes for a perfect result.




5 -  Use your rice cooker to cook a complete main course

Your rice cooker is a multifunctional appliance. You have the possibility of cooking rice but also steaming food (vegetables, fish, pieces of chicken). With these two accessories, you can cook rice and steam on the top at the same time.




6 -  Use your steam accessory

In Asian countries, people put the ingredients on a plate, which is placed directly on or in the steam accessory. Thanks to this method, you can keep the juice of the ingredients.
