- After weeks of experimenting, I got it right. Here is your fail-proof guide for Instant Pot Rice. White rice, brown rice, wild rice, and many more. It is basically an encyclopedia about cooking rice in an instant pot. And from what I'm told, my method works it pretty much any other brand of electric pressure cooker, too.
The video is prefaced by the theory of rice cooking if you're not interested in any of that and want to jump right into how to cook rice in the instant pot jump to these times in the video:
White Rice: 4:33
Brown Rice: 5:44
Red Rice: 7:21
Wild Rice: 8:29
Rice Blend: 9:22
Black Rice: 10:31

Thank you so so much!
Couldn’t agree more Jonathan Cineus, brilliant explanations of everything.
Thanks so much for your sharing 💖
Of all the videos I've watched, they all focused on water to rice ratio and never mentioned the difference a pot makes. Thanks!!
jillhbaudhaan I missed this bit, what difference does a pot make?
Gurmukh Panesar in the beginning she talks about the size of pots and the lids.
Even the instructions that came with my pressure cooker state a 1:1 1/4 ratio, the 1:1 ratio is so much better.
This has to be one of the best teaching videos ever.! Rice is basic to food serving.
The best explanation for cooking different types of rice on the planet. I sauté my onion, garlic, turmeric, sea salt, black pepper with chicken broth and put every in the instant pot based on her method for more nutrient properties .
Your communication style and intelligent approach has my mind blown 🤯 I’ve been watching videos for years re. cooking and NO ONE has mentioned this until now. Thank You so much! Clever lady 💐
Please do a video on cooking beans and lentils in instapot please? 😊
I'm so happy to read you found the video useful. YAY!!! I don't have a video on beans but I do have a whole blog post about it :) Here you go: greenhealthycooking.com/instant-pot-beans/
Green Healthy Cooking Thank you kindly, you’re fantastic keep up the great work! 😊
Finally! All different rice explained! I was so frustrated and now I’m feeling a little more confident in using my instant pot now!
Hi, I haven’t purchased my pot yet but I really want it for the multi grain cooking as well as rice porridge and the pressure cooker. Does no one use the preset rice settings?? Do they just not produce a satisfactory result??
The earmark of a great teacher is repetition and clarity. Thank you for a clear and informative guide.
I'm so happy to read you found my video useful :)
Girl! You've saved my life. Now I can cook rice in my Instant Pot!!!!! Sister thank you for sharing you secret😄
You are very welcome!!! I'm so happy you found this video useful :D
Green Healthy Cooking can I cook wild rice in the rice cooker? If so, will the ratio of the rice and water the same?
@@abigailc4898 I answer that in the video and the time stamps in the description can take you directly to the instructions for wild rice.
I like to turn on Saute and put a little oil or butter into and toast the rice a little before I add the water and pressure cook. It adds an extra depth of flavor that is so delicious. Thanks for the informative video! :)
I've never heard of this before! How long do you sauté the rice for? I mean, does it change color, like "toast" it, like you said? I'll have to try this in the instant pot!
@@nicot9305 I just turn it on Sauté - More, and when it's hot add a little oil and butter to the bottom. Then throw in my rice (even freshly rinsed, just takes a little longer) and saute it. It's best to do it with brown rice but it can be done with white. You'll start to smell a nutty fragrance after about 5-6 minutes and the golden color on the brown rice will deepen a little. Brown Basmati is a really tasty one to do this with, as it just intensifies the nutty flavor even more. Brown jasmine turns out super tasty as well.
Will try this!
Thank you for sharing, I was wondering if this could be done with the this pot and you answer my question 😊
I do the same thing! But I learned it from Brazilians. They saute garlic and onion in oil first, then toast the uncooked rice before adding water. It makes the rice next level good. 🇧🇷
What I like to do is put the rack in the instant pot put water to the top of the rack put my rice and water one to one ratio in a Pyrex bowl in the instant pot and cook. Works beautiful and your instant pot isn’t hardly dirty at all. Thanks for your thorough video
Just when I gave up on rice cooking with my Instapot......OMG!!! 😀...Thanks to You!....Rice and My Instant pot....are In Love Again!...❤❤❤❤
Please do a video like this for dried beans/legumes!
I have a blog post at least for now: greenhealthycooking.com/instant-pot-beans/
Great idea!
With this method, the rice turns out beautiful every single time. Thank you!
I love the fact that you put in the exact times of where to find the rice you want to cook! I have come to your site so many times!
I saute garlic, onion and mushrooms (I love the release of the toasted mushrooms) and then add my rice and water with bouillion. It smells amazing while cooking and instant stand alone dish or a side dish to a main entree.
I'm so happy you find the video and blog useful :) Thank you for coming back and letting me know.
I just came across this recently and its been immensely helpful! I couldnt figure out why my rice was so mushy. I also followed another commenters suggestion about sauteing the rice beforehand with butter and now I have perfect fluffy rice everytime.
What a great video! So clear, so easy to follow. I can’t wait to try rice in my new IP. Thank you!
Thank you... I have tried so many ways and I failed. Your methods WORKED!!!! Thank You!!!!
woot woot!!!
As an owner of an Instant Pot, I must thank you for this very informative video.
Watching this video really made me hungry and want to cook every single rice that you listed they all look so good!
Do it :D
This is THE BEST way to cook rice in the instant pot. I make perfect, fluffy jasmine rice every time using your technique.
Thank you!
For jasmine rice how much time pressure cooking
Such a clear explanation! Love your style! Going to look for more of you!
I just cooked white rice, it was perfect, thank you !
Thank you very much for all the information. I've been rather leary about cooking rice in my IPs since I use a regular rice cooker regularly. Your cooking time chart has enabled me to cross over and do some of my rice dishes in IP!
As another rice lover this was some great information. Definitely a keeper.
I bought a dedicated rice cooker. It turned all my efforts to risotto/sticky/mushy. I've NEVER cooked mushy rice in the pot on the stove way. So I'm really interested in the Instant Pot method for rice, because...I don't want to baby sit food. :-) My next kitchen gadget is the Instant Pot (which slightly terrifies me because pressure cookers looked dangerous before I saw this type). Thank you for this video. Much appreciated.
Excellent instructional.
Thank you.
As a rice lover, I watched the whole video and I enjoyed seeing you repeat the same thing over and over again. I prefer to cook my rice in a rice cooker though. It may take a little longer, it may need more water but it works just fine for me.
This was brilliant! Thank you for taking the time to do this. I'm looking forward to going through your videos!
Thank you so much for your Claire direction for brown rice and mix rice I’ve been looking for good brown rice mix rice with beans🙏👌
Extrordinarely clear!
THANK YOU so much for this video!! I just started a rice diet to reverse diabetes, and had no idea I could make rice in my instant pot. Even my "anti -instant pot" husband thought is was good. I usually rinse my rice first, so instead of adding 1 cup I added 3/4 cup and it came out perfect. God bless!
What a well organized video and information. Very helpful and easy to watch and understand with no waste time! Thanks!
Used this method today vs the method in the back of the manual. This was perfect.
Awesome :D

At 6:05 you confirmed all along what I always knew to be true! Thank you 👍
I really appreciate the thoroughness of your presentation. I've had hit and miss results with my past "few" rice cooking attempts, and thrilled to have found your video. This is brilliant. I was looking for very specific way to make black rice, and this video is so much more. Thank you sooooo much.
I'm so happy to read you found it useful :D
Love your video cause you go thru all of the different types of rice and the exact temps and what's truly wonderful you give the exact point of the video to go where you need to go to watch the type of rice you want to cook! Love it, a truly BIG fan!
I'm so happy to read you found the video useful :)
Great information. I must say, in my experience red rice needs 2 measures of water for every 1 measure of rice and one hour of cooking on high pressure, I tried cooking it exactly the way it's explained in this video but had no luck. I understand red rice must be a bit sticky and chewer than most rice varieties. After cooking it for one hour the rice acquires a similar texture to that of sushi rice but in my opinion better. 😉
I came here for the wild rice but this is such a good descriptive and instructional video that I watched the entire thing! This video is among the best I have seen for a focus on rice. I also appreciate how you marked each type of rice so people could just go to it without watching the whole video- very slick!
I tried wild rice with a different method and was happy with it but will try this since the ratio is easy to remember, It's........let's see....... One part water aaaaaaand.
SUBBED!
Thank you so so much for your wonderful comment :) I'm so happy to read you found the video useful!! :D
@@Greenhealthycooking If I do 2:2, would the cooking time double as well or stay the same? Seems it would be the same?
@@dkyelak same time regardless of amount.
@@Greenhealthycooking Indeed, it worked!
Most helpful video covering rice types, cook times, and instant pot!
Thank you so much. My Instantpot did not come with a recipe book so this is great! I look forward to lots more recipes. So easy to understand.
I'm sensing a theme.
amsterling1 lol, my 9 yr old and I were repeating the whole after your rice is cooked schpiel 😆 by the 3rd round
thanks anxious to try this Very informative simple but percise . Thanks
La meilleure vidéo pour l'instant, c'est clair, net, précis, et très bien détaillée, sans truc superflu, efficacité absolu.
Thanks from a 68 year old bachelor who just bought an Instant Pot Pro Crisp - don't know a thing. This video sooo helpful, just the facts in a fun way. Looked at other rice videos, never explained rice cooking nor the cooking times for all the different types of rice I love! Thks. This is bookmarked! Well done, thank you!!
Thank you! I've been adding too much water, too much time etc etc... You are most appreciated
Thank you very much!!! Love the way you explain things 💕
Here’s my question:
You mentioned basmati white rice, but what about “regular” white rice? The regular kind we use in Mexico is thicker than basmati rice.
Thank you for sharing!!!
If it is thicker it might take 1 more minute on high pressure. Try 4 minutes on high pressure + full natural pressure release.
Green Healthy Cooking Thank you! 😀
As a former educator and new IP owner, I so appreciate your instructional style. Clarity and reinforcement are the 🔑 . Just subscribed!
Thank you for your very clear directions for cooking all types of rice.
Thank you , I appreciate your attention to detail. Do I turn the Instant Pot off immediately to stop the warming while waiting for a natural release? Captain Kent (ATP USMC)
kentatp ahí Captain Lent, no you leave the warm function on during natural pressure release :)
I love this method. Just wondering if the cooking time changes if you make 3 cups vs. 1 cup of rice?
No, the cooking time does not change :)
@@Greenhealthycooking How can cooking time not change? You trying to heat up a triple amount of water and rice.
@@omaha88888 because the pot simply needs triple the time to "get to pressure" so it automatically takes longer before the pressure cooking time starts. That's why you don't have to add any extra time yourself. The more volume is in the post, the longer it takes to get to pressure and to depressurize. Which is why natural pressure release is so important.
@@Greenhealthycooking 👍👍
Without a doubt this is the best! It only took me 53 years and this 12 minute video to learn to make perfect rice. And really, only a couple minutes to fast forward to the type of rice I am using at the moment. Thank you very much.
You are very welcome! I'm so happy you found my video useful :)
Thanks for sharing. You do an absolutely great job of explaining the various cook times. Instant Pot should hire you !
I've got it: one cup of rice, one cup of water, ... Repetition is the key!
Love the finger wag! Thanks for these tips! Now I will try unusual types of rice!
Yes! The black rice was new to me, too. Super yummy!
Green Healthy Cooking black rice/forbidden rice is probably my favorite of all rices! It is SO yummy!
Glutinous rice is great too. But that's for Thai rice pudding (a different kind of black rice).
This is the best how-to-cook rice vid out there. It’s my go-to every time I cook rice. My rice turns out perfect every time.
Thank you especially for the time stamps!
I’m so happy to read you find it useful :)
Great video. Will try this tomorrow thank you.
So it's one cup rice, one cup, water, and a ;inch of salt, right? LOL. Just kidding. Good video. The information in the beginning was something you rarely see mentioned. Appreciate the time information using the Instant Pot.
lol, I'm happy to repeat it again :P
@@Greenhealthycooking lmao
04:33 - White Rice
05:44 - Brown Rice
07:21 - Red Rice
08:29 - Wild Rice
09:22 - Rice Blend
10:31 - Black Rice
Thank you!!
Clear, consise, no faffing about. This is the guide I've been looking for. Thank you.
I have watched so many and this...THIS.IS.THE.BEST.VIDEO!!!
Excellent! Just what I needed except for one type of rice: Uncle Ben’s CONVERTEd rice (in other words, rice that has been parboiled. Thank you again for such clear instructions.
Good advice. Thank you. I finally got my brown rice to come out good enough so that I can serve it to my family. I’ve been getting the ratio wrong all this time. However you didn’t mention rinsing the rice. Wouldn’t that affect the rice? BTW, I rinsed my rice first.
I mention it in the blog post, forgot to mention it in the video. Sorry :) It makes no difference though. As long as you drain the rice well, the recipe works with both dry and rinsed rice. I personally never rinse my rice.
I have heard from reliable sources on both sides of the great Rice Rinsing Debate.
This short video seems to explain that rinsing is not "necessary" but will affect how sticky your cooked rice comes out.

@@guycoburn1633 which method do you use rinse or not rinsed
I have a ninja foodi (instant pot on steriods) and i tried a chicken and rice recipe and the rice was a horrible, gloppy mess.
Oh noooo :( I'm so sorry to read that. That recipe has given me grey hair. It is the recipe with the most 5-star and 1-star reviews. There is no in-between. Either people are successful and love it or it simply doesn't turn out and they get the burn warning. I've even contacted Instant Pot and asked them to review my recipe and help me figure out why some people were having trouble and they didn't figure it out either. It makes me so sad :( It's one of my favorite recipes and always turns out great for me.
@@Greenhealthycooking well the ninja foodi has a hi and low setting for the pressure part of it. I didnt know which one to choose so I chose hi. Perhaps I will try it again on the low setting and see how it turns out.🙂
@@knittingnana2939 I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with the Ninja at all :S In the Instant Pot I definitely use only the "high" pressure setting for everything.
Short, sweet, and effective. Thank you.
Saving lives even 4 years later, thank you, subscribed!
IF YOU WANT THE RICE ASIAN STYLE DO NOT USE SALT.
Thanks for sharing your experiences you’re very kind, wishing good blessings for you.
Best rice cooking guide ever!
Thank you so much! I am new to Insta Pot and meal prepping this is so helpful and will be doing this next. I can keep prepping while this cooks YAY!!!!
exactly!!! This is the beauty of this wonderful machine. It doesn't need any babysitting so you're free to get other things done!
EXCELLENT GUIDE!!! So thorough, so comprehensively considerate of all of the variables involved! I'm so impressed, thank you for making this!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for this video! Your explanation, and instruction is exactly what I was looking for. I have tried multiple times to cook white rice in my Instant Pot, spending excessive time rinsing the rice (because all the instructions online say to rinse). I followed your directions today (without rinsing) and for the first time, produced perfect results. THANK YOU!
Most rice brands in North America and Europe have already been washed so no need to rinse but the method works even with rinsed rise if you ever want to rinse it :)
@@Greenhealthycooking Huh? I would still rinse the rice (or any other pulses) before cooking just to be on the safer side.
Best video ever on how to cook rice in an instant pot!
Yay! Thank you!
Thanks for your info and all your work to create this. It is much appreciated.
❤ I can’t wait to try this because of your clear explanations. Thank you 😊
Best video ever about making rice!!! Thank you!
Repetition is Key 🔐! Thank you for this!
That was a very useful video for an Instant Pot user thanks for posting.
This was so informative!
Thank you. This method worked really well.
Great explanation! I am cooking white rice in my I P tonight. Thanks 🙏🏻
This is the best explanation in the whole world, Thank u
You are very welcome! I'm happy you found my video useful :)
Thanks for the information. As a new I pot owner it's what I needed to know. Love your accent!
thank you :)
Thank you for the 'straight to the point' style and video short cuts to the specific rice grains - very helpful. Just a tip: if you are looking to cut down on depressurizing time - turn the instant pot OFF. It helps despressurize a little bit quicker. I set my fitbit watch timer to 12 minutes. Hope that helps!
This is by far the best and most informative video on instant pot rice cooking. Thank you so much. And you have conquered the language as well, I cannot tell that English is not your first language.
Great video. Will try this for sure.
I love this instruction style. People that can communicate patiently and clearly is huge in my books. Subscribed!
I'm so happy to read you found it useful :)
Best rice video out there!
Thank you so much!
4:35 for white rice… I just made rice this exact way… it came out PERFECT. Thank you so much!
Awesome video. The rice I've always made always came out overcooked and mushy. That was using the instant pot pre-set setting for Rice. However your method has now allowed me to master perfect long grain rice that is no longer mushy. Thanks! Your 1:1 ratio and 3 minute time is perfect. I used to use 2:1 ratio and 10 minutes on the cooking setting, and it just never came out.
Yay!!! I'm so happy my method worked for you :D
Felt compelled to leave a comment. What a fabulous, informative, complete and helpful video. Covered all possible questions in one shot. Well done. Thank you so much. 👏🏼👍🏼😊❤️
thank you :)
Thanks for those tips. I will give them a try.
Thanks I was pondering 🤔 if we turn off the heat once the 3 minutes is up or not. Since I did turn it off and waited ten minutes. My rice was a bit sticky.
Crystal clear presentation. Thank you.
so happy😀 I found your video ! I received a instant pot as a gift and recently starting using it - you have been so helpful
Great video. I frequently come back as a reference. I appreciate that you put the exact time of the video in your notes. Thank you. Subscribed!!
Thank you for subscribing :)
Thank you so much for this video. It has helped me cook perfect rice every time!
Well done! Very clear! Informative
Thank you So much , you are a life saver..... love instructions it's so clear to follow.... thank again... God bless you and your family a very happy healthy life.....😇🙏🌻☺️💞💝
Excellent - thanks for the easy to follow directions.
Such clear instructions...You are so clear on the instructions I thank you so much... the explanations on the different rices were great 👍 thanks for sharing your expertise.
You are very welcome :)
I am applauding you...as a teacher..you are an excellent one...The Rice Growers of the World should give you an award.
You have given a true gift to us rice lovers..who are freaked out by our InstaPots!
I'm so happy to read you found the video useful :)
Absolutely the BEST IP rice!!! This should be included with the IP recipe book. Thank you!!!
