Notes
- Rinse the rice under cold running water before adding to the Instant Pot. This helps to remove starch so that the grains don't clump together.
- Naturally release rather than quick release the pressure. This will ensure that your rice is fully cooked through.
- If making ahead of time, let the rice cool fully before storing or freezing.
