Notes

These guidelines are general, meaning you may need to adjust liquid and fat ratios and/or the amount of time needed to pressure cook and steam release method, depending on the specific grain type and perhaps brand you are using.
If you are putting additional ingredients into your pressure cooker, along with your rice, pressure cooking times, liquid ratios, fat ratios and steam release method may need to be adjusted. Please consult recipe recommendations.
