Pressure Cooking Rice/Grains: To achieve best results when pressure
cooking rice/grains, please refer to the below tips and hints:
1. Add 1-2 tablespoons of oil to the dried grains to minimize frothing.
2. Do not fill removable cooking pot more than half way to allow rice/grain to
expand in size.
3. Do not use the quick release method to release pressure; Use the natural
release method instead to release pressure from the cooker.
4. Pearl Barley tends to froth, foam and sputter which may block the
pressure valve if filled too high in the removable cooking pot. Please be
sure to not fill the removable cooking pot more than half way.

and those that cook more slowly into smaller pieces.

please refer to the below tips and hints:
1. Always leave at least 2 inches from the top rim to prevent overflowing.
2. Smaller types of seafood, such as clams and shrimp, do not take long to

last few minutes of cooking.
