Wild Rice In The Pressure Cooker Recipes

Steps:

• Rub with butter or spray rice cooker pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Add water or stock, rice, and salt to taste.
• Cover and cook about 40- 50 minutes, or until rice is fluffy.
• Let stand 10 minutes more before serving.

Steps:

• Turn on the sauté setting on a 6- to 8-quart electric pressure cooker. Melt the butter, then add the onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Add the mushrooms and 1 teaspoon salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms have released their liquid and shrunk a bit, about 8 minutes. Add the celery, carrot, chopped garlic, thyme, garlic powder and several generous grinds of black pepper. Stir to combine. Add the flour and stir until the vegetables are evenly coated and no white spots remain.
• Pour in the stock and wine, and turn off the heat. Scrape the bottom of the pot very well to incorporate flour and any browned bits that are stuck to the bottom. (This will add flavor and also prevent a burn warning later.) Stir in the wild rice.
• Cook on high pressure for 10 to 12 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the pressure reduce naturally for 10 minutes, then release the remaining pressure manually.
• Stir the soup and check the texture of the wild rice; if it needs a bit more time repeat the pressure cooking process for a cook time of 2 minutes and rapidly release the pressure. Check the texture of the soup; if you'd like it to be thicker, turn on the sauté function and let the soup simmer to reduce to desired consistency. Turn off the heat.
• Put the sour cream in a small bowl and slowly whisk in a few spoonfuls of warm soup until smooth, then stir the mixture into the soup. (This prevents the sour cream from separating.) Taste the soup and add salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve the soup in bowls topped with chopped scallions or chives and dill. Reheat any leftovers on low until warm. (Boiling can cause the sour cream to break.)

Steps:

• Place water and rice in a pressure cooker and secure lid.
• Heat to high pressure over high heat; reduce heat to medium, but maintain pressure.
• Cook 30 minutes; remove from heat, release pressure, then remove lid and drain.

Steps:

• In pressure cooker, pour in water and bring it to a rolling boil.
• Pour in well-drained rice, stir well.
• Secure lid, and bring to LOW pressure (8 psi, 1 bar). Once pot has reached low pressure, adjust heat to stabilize at low pressure. (My stove runs hot for a simmer, so sometimes I stack an extra burner grate or I press the steam valve of my Kuhn Rikon p.c. lid with a wooden spoon to keep the pressure at 1 bar.) Once low pressure has been reached, begin timing for 25 minutes and cook for 25 minutes.
• Remove from heat. Let pressure reduce naturally (this will absorb some of the excess water, if any).
• Remove lid and serve.

Steps:

• Cook Uncle Ben's rice according to package directions, substituting chicken broth for water.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil in pressure cooker over medium high heat.
• Saute celery, carrot, onion, and garlic for 3-4 minutes until soft.
• Add bay leaves, chicken broth, and chicken breasts to pressure cooker.
• Secure lid, bring up to pressure and reduce heat so regulator is rocking at high pressure.
• Cook for 7 minutes.
• Let pressure reduce naturally for 4 minutes and then quick release remaining pressure.
• Remove chicken from cooker to a cutting board to cool.
• Remove bay leaves and discard.
• Combine salt, pepper, and flour in a small bowl and set aside.
• Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium low heat.
• Sift flour mixture into butter, stirring constantly until all of flour is absorbed.
• Heat and stir for 1 minute or until bubbly.
• Whisk milk into flour/butter mixture a little at a time.
• Cook, stirring frequenly, for 5 minutes.
• Add white wine to milk mixture and stir. If not using wine, may need additional milk for desired consistency.
• Chicken should now be cool enough to shred/dice and return to pressure cooker pot.
• When rice is done cooking, stir and add to pressure cooker pot with chicken and vegetables.
• Add milk mixture to pot and stir.
• Add additional water for desired soup/chowder consistency. Simmer for 10 minutes until warmed through.
• Ladle into bowls and serve with your favorite bread or garlic cheddar biscuits!

Steps:

• Mince the shallots.
• Melt 2 Tbs butter in the pressure cooker.
• Add the shallots and cook over high heat until soft, about 2 minutes.
• Add the rice and barley and stir well.
• Pour in the sherry.
• When the mixture has stopped sputtering, add the beef stock or broth and water.
• Close pressure cooker and bring up to full pressure.
• Reduce heat to stabilize pressure and cook for 23 minutes.
• Release pressure.
• Most of the rice should be split open and tender but not mushy.
• Return the cover and cook longer if necessary.
• If there is liquid remaining after the rice is cooked, pour it off.
• The mushrooms can be cooked in the pressure cooker by removing the rice and after it is cooked, or they can be cooked in a skillet while the rice is cooking.
• Melt the remaining 2 Tbs butter in the pressure cooker or a skillet.
• Add the mushrooms and cook over high heat until they are soft and most of the liquid has been cooked away.
• Fold the mushrooms into the rice mixture and add salt to taste.
• This dish can be made several days in advance and refrigerated.
• Reheat on the stove or in the microwave oven before serving.
