Crock pot Express Rice Recipe

We eat a lot of white, Jasmine, brown and how to cook Arborio rice isn't a whole lot different! We guess it is the solid cheap side dish that all 5 of us like and it's super easy to make rice in your pressure cooker now.

Gone are the days when you had to make it on the stovetop and watch it, throw your 2 ingredients into your pot, push the button and walk away. Then you'll have fluffy Crockpot Express white rice when it beeps. Once the steam is released, serve and enjoy!

How long does it take to cook rice in Crockpot Express?

Long grain takes 12 minutes. The rice button will automatically set it to that cook time which is handy, you can press high pressure and if making jasmine variety you instead set to 6 minutes with a 10 minute natural release. Different grains need a subtle tweak to get perfectly tender.

Crock Pot Express Jasmine rice

For this one you would follow the directions in our Instant Pot jasmine rice for that type. Only difference is that there is less high pressure time and a longer natural release so it can fluff up at the end when done. Same time but 6 minutes + 6 minutes broken down that way.

A spoon lifts a portion of fluffy white rice above a cooker, showcasing the perfection achieved with the Crockpot Express. The text at the bottom proudly declares, Crock Pot Express Fluffy White Rice.

Crock pot Express Brown Rice

Ok so the darker the grains are the longer they will take to cook. You will need to increase the cook time from 12 to 22 minutes. Then you have to allow a natural release for 20 minutes after that to fluff up, yes it is a lot longer with a bit more water too but good. You can follow the full instructions here with pressure cooker brown rice instructions.

Kitchen questions

Can you use Instant Pot recipes with a CrockPot Express?

Absolutely. Anything labeled as Instant Pot or pressure cooker recipe will work in this pot with the low or high pressure button. Brown is the same as the IP saute button instructions you may find.

Can you use a Crock Pot Express as a rice cooker?

Yes you can and it works well too. There is a rice button or you can customize the cook time with the high pressure function. Wild takes the longest followed by brown rice, and long grain or Jasmine take the same time.
