Aroma ARC-1010SB - Manual (Page 17)

Safety Considerations:
1) Rice cookers cook at very high temperatures and will produce large
amounts of steam. Use extreme caution when opening rice cooker
during and after the cooking cycle. When lifting the hinged cover,
keep hands and face away from the rice cooker to avoid the steam.
2) If a recipe calls for the sauteing of butter or oil, use extreme
caution, as you would when cooking with other high-temperature
devices like a stove or oven. The inner cooking pot will be hot, so use
a long-handled plastic or wooden spoon for stirring. DO NOT USE
the short-handled serving spatula for this type of cooking.
3) It is important to remember that the rice cooking cycle of the rice
cooker is controlled by the temperature of the inner cooking pot.
When liquid boils off, the temperature will rise, causing the rice cooker
to automatically shift into the low temperature “Keep-Warm” mode.
This is fine for making rice dishes but if a recipe calls for making soups,
or other recipes where copious quantities of liquid are used, the rice
cooker will not shut off until all liquid is boiled away. Follow the recipe
carefully and do not leave the rice cooker unattended as it will
continue to cook at high temperatures when making soups, stews
and chilis. Monitor the cooking process. MANUALLY TURN OFF the rice
cooker when the time that the recipe stipulates has elapsed.
• Spraying the inner cooking pot with a light coating of nonstick cooking
spray is a great way to make cleanup easier without adding flavor or
calories to your meal.
• When a recipe calls for salt, use kosher salt. It has no impurities or
additives and dissolves easily. You will need to use about one and a
half times more kosher salt than you would table salt.
• If the rice cooker shuts off before the food is totally cooked, add
more water and start the cooker again.
• Stocks and broths can be used in place of water to add flavor and
improve texture when cooking rice. Stocks and broths can be found in
your local supermarket. Another option is to use bouillon cubes (they
come in a wide variety of flavors). One cube and one cup of water
usually makes one cup of stock.
