C.

If a longer detachable power supply cord or extension cord is
used;(1) the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension

cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance, (2) if the appliance is of the grounded type, the exten­sion cord should be a grounded type three-wire cord, and (3) the

longer’cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or
tripped over unintentionally.

Rice is a staple food in diets around the world. It can be enjoyed hot
or cold, in main dishes, salads, or even desserts. The OSTER Rice
Cooker will cook many varieties of rice that can add great versatility
to your meals.

*Try some:
Brown rice - Has a

nutlike

flavor and chewy texture. It is the most

nutritious of all rice varieties because only the outer husk has been

‘removed. This rice may take a slightly longer cooking time. than

enriched rice.
Precooked rice

-Is

cooked and then dehydrated after processing.
It is a convenience food that cooks in a few minutes. Follow package
instructions for water and rice amounts to use.

Wild rice-Is really not a true rice but a wild grass. its distinctive flavor
makes it a perfect accompaniment for wild game. Wild rice is usually
mixed with long grain rice for a more pleasing flavor and lower cost.

Enriched rice-Has B vitamins and iron added.
Parboiled or converted rice- Will not be starchy or sticky when

cooked. The rice is soaked

and steamed before milling which forces

the water soluble B vitamins into the center of the grain.
Packaged Seasoned Rice Mixes- Follow package directions. Use

the water

and butter amounts listed on the package. Add the rice

immediately and press the WARM/COOK lever. When the rice is cooked,
the unit will automatically switch to WARM setting.

Rice also is identified by length of grain. Long grain rice usually is less
starchy and separates easily. It is usually used in salads and casseroles.

Short and medium grain rice is usually starchy and clings together.
It is used primarily for molded salads, soups and puddings.

level off any excess rice. Place the measured rice ihto the Rice
Pan. The Rice Cup is NOT a standard measuring cup. When full,

it equals approximately
