How to cook rice porridge in an electric pressure cooker

Although porridge is simple, its function cannot be underestimated. If you have a bad stomach or no appetite, porridge is a good choice. Porridge is very simple to make. You can cook it directly on the fire or in a rice cooker. If you want to save time, you can use an electric pressure cooker. The different methods will not affect the taste of the porridge. So, how do you cook porridge in an electric pressure cooker? Let’s learn how to do it below.

1. First point

Before use, first check whether the exhaust pipe hole is unobstructed, and then put the food into the pot, but the food must not exceed 4/5 of the pot capacity. Then put the lid on and turn it in the direction of "close" indicated by the arrow on the lid until the two handles completely overlap.

2. Second point

After closing the cover, when you see steam being discharged steadily from the exhaust pipe, buckle the pressure limiting valve onto the exhaust pipe. No other weight should be added to the pressure limiting valve, and it should not be replaced by anything else. The instructions have specific regulations on the steaming and cooking time for various types of food, and should be strictly followed. It cannot be extended arbitrarily to avoid accidents.

3. The third point

Before opening the lid, if there is air pressure in the pot, it should be cooled and depressurized. It can be cooled naturally or forced cooling can be done by pouring cold water on the pot. Then, remove the pressure limiting valve, and when the exhaust pipe no longer releases air, turn it in the "open" direction (i.e. counterclockwise) as indicated by the arrow on the pot to open the pot lid.

4. The fourth point

When making porridge, when the pressure limiting valve is released and lifted, the pot should be removed from the fire immediately to prevent the rice soup from spraying.

5. Fifth Point

It is easy to dissolve and plug the holes, so keep it clean. When the soluble metal in the hole is removed, it should be replaced and should never be replaced with anything else.

6. Sixth Point

Wash and dry it after use. The lid should be placed upside down on the pot body instead of closing it with the pot body to prevent the sealing rubber ring from deforming and causing air leakage during use.

7. Point 7

It is not advisable to store alkali, salt, soy sauce, etc. in the pot for a long time to prevent corrosion. If residual food sticks to the pot, soak it in warm water and scrub it. Never scrub with ash, sand, etc.

8. Point 8

The lid, pot body and pressure-limiting valve should be properly kept and strictly prevented from knocks and collisions to avoid damaging the seal of the pot and losing the function of the pressure cooker. When holding the pot, lift the main and auxiliary handles at the same time to reduce the force on one end of the handle and prevent damage to the handle.
