Notes

Recipe has been made and tested in the 6-quart Instant Pot electric pressure cooker and the 8 quart without changing ingredients or time.
There is only 4 minutes of cooking time, but this recipe needs 10 minutes of pressure release for a total of 14 minutes, plus time for the pot to come to pressure.
Always use 1 cup water to 1 cup rice. The cook time is the same no matter how much rice you make.
Always use care when releasing pressure -- I use a long wooden spoon to turn the pressure valve.
Don't leave the pot on the warm setting as the rice may stick to the bottom. Turn it off and serve right away.
