## Grains & Legumes
Rinsing and soaking these are very helpful for my digestion.
Since I'm a nomad and engage in dry camping (boondocking) I've had to find a way to still do this while conserving water so that I can stay out longer.
Since I'm a nomad and engage in dry camping (boondocking) I've had to find a way to do this while conserving water so that I can stay out longer.
As of April 2026 I've shortened it down to only using twice the amount of cooking water, rather than 3 times or more if using separate water for both the rinse and the soak.
Further reducing the water usage involved washing the meal's veggies in the soaked/rinsed water.

So, basically, if making 1 cup of rice with 2 zucchini:
**Rinse & Soak Stage**
1. Add 1 cup of rice to the Instant Pot bowl.
1. Add 3 cups of water.
1. Agitate the rice.
1. Close the lid.
1. Add 1 cup of rice and 3 cups of water to the Instant Pot bowl.
1. Agitate the rice. You'll notice the water becomes cloudy.
1. Set the Instant Pot to Yogurt - Less - 30 minutes.
1. Allow to sit until ready to start cooking.
**Food Preparation Stage**
1. Open the Instant Pot.
1. Place the zucchini in the water, rinsing them off.
1. Remove the bowl from the Instant Pot.
1. Rinse off the zucchini in the bowl then remove them.
1. Pour the rice and water into a colander or strainer of some sort.
1. Cut the zucchini on a cutting board like you normally would.
1. Add all the ingredients back to the bowl.
1. Add 3 cups of water.
1. Set to Rice - High.
1. Continue like you normally would if standardly cooking this meal.
1. Slice or dice the zucchini to your preferences.
1. Add the rice, zucchini, and 2-3 cups of water to the bowl.
1. Set to Rice - High and allow the pressure to release naturally!
- I get better results using High Pressure for rice.
Then wait for it to complete and release the pressure naturally! :)
Some may think that even this is a lot of water rice! I prefer my meals moist to help with hydration and digestion. Dry, crunchy, or even al dente rice is a no-go for me.
