Notes

For best results, don’t skip the sauté step to enhance flavor. Use the correct liquid ratio: 1 cup of rice to 1.25 cups of liquid. Variations: add turmeric for a golden hue, or mix in veggies like broccoli or carrots during cooking. Leftovers freeze well for up to 3 months; portion and label them appropriately. Avoid quick releasing to prevent mushy rice; let the pressure drop naturally.
