Madcow33. That's exactly how I have made rice forever! I bought an electric pressure cooker...on a whim....have used a stovetop for yrs...no problem, but thought this would be a great time saver...maybe it is, but after using it 2/3 times, it now sits on the shelf in the laundry room along with the "air-fryer"--- ans I don't watch infomercials anymore!
