Floating Leaf Rice in the Instant Pot
Floating Leaf wild rice cooked in an Instant Pot, from the maker's own directions.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (180g) Floating Leaf rice (Wild Rice Blend, Jasmine Thai Trio, Ancient Fields, or Prairie Blend)
- 1 cup (240g) water or broth (use 1 1/4 cups / 300g for softer rice)
Instructions
- Put the rice and liquid in the Instant Pot and make sure all the rice is under the liquid.
- Close the lid and set the valve to Sealing.
- Pressure cook on High: 15 minutes for Wild Rice Blend, or 10 minutes for Jasmine Thai Trio, Ancient Fields, or Prairie Blend.
- When it finishes, turn the cooker off and carefully quick-release the pressure.
- Fluff and serve.
Levers and swaps
- Liquid: 1 cup water or broth to 1 cup rice (used): standard texture; 1 1/4 cups liquid per cup of rice: softer rice; Broth instead of water: more savory
- Blend and time: Wild Rice Blend: 15 minutes on High; Jasmine Thai Trio, Ancient Fields, or Prairie Blend: 10 minutes on High; Keep the time the same if you double the batch
- Release: Careful quick release (used), after turning the cooker off; If it spatters, release in short bursts; Fluff before serving so the grains separate
