Hmm, okay, I’ll bite. What’s the secret with low pressure for long grain rice like basmati? I’ve been using 1:1 ratio rice:water for 6 minutes on high with a 10 minute natural release.
Bone broth in place of water and using the fry function of the crock pot to toast the rice before hand in a little bit of butter
Interesting. How many minutes on low, and quick release or natural?
I always quick release bit that's because I am certifiably impatient. I'm not at home so I would have to check down what I wrote in my reference boom but I THINK I use 8 minutes. Now, those 8 mins only start once the pressure top engages, so the quantity of rice and the model of the unit probably allow for about 3 minutes of wiggle room due to preheat cycle differences and amount of time to reach pressure.
