So, are you ready to learn how to make Instant Pot long grain rice? Join me in the bistro kitchen!  There are numerous ways to cook rice from the stovetop, microwave, or rice cooker. Your pressure cooker is also a great way to cook rice.
Cooking Rice In A Pressure CookerIt is really fast to cook your rice in the pressure cooker. You do not have to babysit which is something you have to do when you cook it on the stovetop. When I use my pressure cooker for another recipe and I want some rice I take out my rice cooker else it is Instant Pot all the way. To Rinse Rice or Not Rinse Rice?That is the question. There are all sorts of theories about why you should or shouldn’t rinse your rice before using it. I always rinse my rice. Why? Because that is what my father taught me to do. When I was a little kid, we would have this big pile of rice in a sack in the kitchen that was imported by ship from Surinam. My father would take a couple of cups of rice and clean it because it had a lot of starch and starch sticks. He always said, you never know where the rice has been or what was put on it so wash it with warm water until the water is clear. To this day that is what I do because the rice doesn’t stick together as much as it would unrinsed. If you do not want to rinse the rice that is totally fine as well. Should I Rinse Rice Overnight?I never rinsed any type of rice for such a long period of time. I’m sure there is no hard to put rice in water and leave it for an hour or more. The main reason why I never do this is that I forget. So, when I plan on cooking rice all I do is rinse and go. Let me know if you rinse your rice longer and how your results are. Now it is time to take out your Instant Pot, Crock-Pot Express, or electronic pressure cooker so we can cook some rice. Long Grain Rice IngredientsTo make pressure cooker rice you need a couple of ingredients. Have the following ready when you start:
Instead of water, you can also use broth. How To Make Instant Pot Long Grain RiceSo, start rinsing your rice in a mesh strainer and wash it with warm water. If you do not rinse your rice, put a cup in your pressure cooker. Add a cup of water or broth to the rice cooker. Take the same cup that you use to measure the rice to measure the water. You can add salt but that is totally optional. I never add salt to my rice before cooking and do not miss it but feel free to add. No close the lid of the Instant Pot and secure it. Turn the valve to the sealed position. Select the Manual or Pressure Cooker option and cook on high for 4 minutes. When the cooking time is done let the pressure Natural Release for 5 minutes then Quick Release the remaining pressure. If your pressure cooker comes with a white paddle fluff the rice with it else you can use a fork. Use or serve the rice immediately. How To Cook Two Cups Instant Pot RiceIf you need more rice all you have to do is double the amount of rice so 2 cups of rice with two cups of water. Always use the same cup to measure the rice and the water. Use the same settings so set to Manual or Pressure Cooking for 4 minutes on high. Natural release for 5 minutes then quick release. Some pressure cookers require more water. If your rice is still hard after cooking add 1/4 cup extra water. It is a test to see what works for your pressure cooker. Should I Use The Rice Preset On My Pressure Cooker?You can use this setting but I never do. I always set my Instant Pot to the setting described above and it works perfectly every time. How To Store Long Grain RiceThe best way to serve rice is when made fresh and serve immediately. If you have leftover rice let it cool as fast as possible (within 1 hour) and store it straight away. You shouldn’t leave cooked rice at room temperature too long as rice can contain bacteria that can cause food poisoning. You have several options to store rice:
Freeze uncooked rice. You can find stories that you can extend the shelf life of rice by freezing it before cooking. I have never frozen uncooked rice or put it in the fridge as I do not see the need for it. How To Reheat RiceWhen I reheat rice, I always use it in fried rice. That way I know I warmed my rice thoroughly. It is very important to heat all of your rice because of bacteria that can survive in cooked rice. So, heat your wok or skillet to hot and add your rice. You can reheat from frozen. Just stir it continuously until you see all of the rice is piping hot. Then serve. You can also reheat the rice using the microwave but I never do this. If you do, add 2 tablespoons of water to an airtight container with the rice. Put the container in the microwave and heat for 3 to 4 minutes or until it is really hot through. Check if the internal temperature is at least 165℉ or hotter and serve immediately. You can also use your Air Fryer to reheat rice. The easiest way is to use a cake barrel and add the rice into it. You can also use an Air Fryer to make Air Fryer fried rice which is made with leftover cooked rice because besides cooking rice in an Instant Pot you can boil rice in an Air Fryer as well.

Chewier rice will result from using a 1-to-1 ratio, or from adding a bit more water. I usually go with a 2-to-1 ratio for cooking a long-grain rice like basmati. Traditionally, basmati rice first is soaked for 30 minutes to as long as two hours.
