An easy and quicker way to cook mixed grains rice without having to presoak the grains prior to cooking. A convenient alternative to cooking multigrain rice without a fancy rice cooker that has a built in glutinous rice setting!
Using measuring cup, measure out desired amount of calrose rice and mixed grains rice in the pot provided by the Instant Pot machine.
Rinse rice with cool water three times or until water is clear. Drain out as much dirty water as you can after the final rinse.
Add 3.5 cups of fresh water to uncooked rice and pot.
Return pot to Instant Pot machine. Cover with lid and make sure steam release valve is set to "sealing"
Click on the Instant Pot rice setting to cook rice. Total cook time should be 35-40 minutes when using the rice settings. Instant Pot should make a sound when rice is ready. Before opening lid, make sure the Instant Pot is no longer pressurized and that the float valve has dropped before opening. Otherwise, use a kitchen towel to move steam release valve from "sealing" to "venting." Only open lid once float valve has dropped.
Mix and fluff rice with a rice paddle. Voilá, enjoy!
