Recipe
Prep salmon and rice in rice cooker.
  1. Season salmon and fit into the steaming tray in the rice cooker. Alternatively, use in a steamer tray/basket on the stove top, or cook the salmon in another preferred way.

  2. Rinse rice and place in rice cooker according to the appliance directions, season to taste
  3. Steam rice and fish together on the rice cooker cycle. The fish takes about 20 minutes to steam, which is why this works best with white rice.
