A program that works just as a rice cooker. There is a specific program for each dl of rice. Each program calculate the input of heat needed, to bring the rice to a boil as quickly as possible. So make sure to start the correct program for your amount of rice. The recipe is designed to use as little energy as possible, therefor very little water evaporates from the cooking pot. This also ensures that the recipe can be used for both brown and white rice, without changing the proportions between water and rice.

Instructions

1

Before you start

Add your desired amount of rice, water, and salt to the 3 L pot. Cover with the lid and press the "play" button next to the corresponding rice quantity. During the cooking process, when the water is boiling away, you can stir the rice once, although it's not strictly necessary. However, after the rice is done, it's recommended to give it a gentle stir to loosen it up, ensuring even cooking. Letting the rice rest in the pan at 65 ºC enhances its texture. So, if you plan to eat at 6 pm, start cooking the rice at 5 pm for optimal results. If you're in a hurry, you can serve it as soon as the program indicates it's ready. The salt measurements are precise, so avoid using approximate measures. Important! Do not use the scaling function for this recipe. Instead, use the amounts listed under each step.

The reason the Ricecooker recipe only goes up to 6 dl of rice is simply because that’s the maximum amount that fits safely in the 3L pot without boiling over. If you add more than that, the pot will typically overflow during cooking.

There is a 5.5L pot also. Extend the recipe for this pot

The Danes demonstrate their enthusiasm for decimal units with some that may be unfamiliar to others: 1dl = 1 decilitre = 100ml. 1cl = 1 centilitre = 10ml. This goes back to the Battle of Cophagen when Nelson gave them a right drubbing, causing them to side with Napoleon on the grounds that the had already been punished.
