Does the Instant Pot make good rice?

Oh, yes! It comes out absolutely perfect every time. It’s light and fluffy and it doesn’t stick together. Plus, you don’t have to watch it carefully like you do when you cook rice on the stove. I like making rice in the Instant Pot so much that it’s now the ONLY way I make it! Check out my list below of my favorite Instant Pot rice recipes!

What is the best Instant Pot to buy?

Taking it all into consideration – both the functions AND the max ⅔ full aspect – AND the size of my family – I ended up purchasing the 8-quart DUO 7-in-1 Instant Pot (because of the yogurt setting) on Amazon and I couldn’t be happier! It is perfect for my family of four.

Do you need to rinse rice?

Rinsing rise is up to you! It does not remove extra starch as some believe, but it does help remove any dirt or debris that may be in your rice. If you want to rinse your rice, measure it into a fine mesh strainer and swirl it under running water for 1-2 minutes until the water runs clear.
