+## 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.
+
+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 sepafate water for both the rinse and the soak.
+Further reduceing the water usage involved washing the meal's veggies in the soaked/rinsed water.
+
+### Example
+
+So, basically, if making 1 cup of rice with 2 chopped 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. 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. 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.
+
+Then wait for it to complete and release the pressure naturally! :)
